Mereside Angel (3/1), J R Cavagin (4/1), High Opinion (4/1), Count D'Orsay (5/1), Lotus Rose (6/1), Caribbean Sunset (13/2), Birkenhead (14/1), Blazing Hot (28/1), Jarvis (28/1)

MERESIDE ANGEL came clear with a bit in hand at Ayr last week and is fancied to score once more with a top apprentice up. Count d'Orsay is on a momentous losing run but caught the eye here last time and drops in grade now. High Opinion can also be in the mix again.
