Forecasts

Mereside Angel (15/8), High Security (7/2), One Last Hug (7/2), Stay Smart (9/2), Primo's Comet (5/1), Sixcor (17/2), Bonito Cavalo (9/1)

HIGH SECURITY produced his best effort of the season when third at Nottingham last week and now looks ready to cash in on his good mark. Old rivals Stay Smart and One Last Hug dominated the finish in a C&D handicap recently and are feared most.
