Harry Angel gelding who showed plenty of ability when second of 5 in maiden at Yarmouth (5.2f, good to soft) on debut 17 days ago, giving an odds-on favourite plenty to think about. He's sure to progress so he's a big player.

CLEARPOINT made an impressive winning start at Ayr towards the back end of last month and Richard Fahey's charge looks destined for bigger and better things. He can defy a penalty at the chief expense of Harry Brown, who made an odds-on chance work harder that may have been expected at Yarmouth 17 days ago. Naomi's Charm may prove the pick of the newcomers so she can fill out third spot.
