Greer (9/4), Respectful (16/5), Midnite Storm (7/2), Detroit Lion (5/1), Mickley (8/1), Wonder Smile (18/1), Bubbles Wonky (22/1), Old Bailey (66/1), Starlight Stanley (80/1), Triple Force (80/1), Beguiling (150/1), Jez Bomb (200/1), Filey Beach (200/1)

GREER looked a good prospect when making a winning debut at Chester last month, doing well in the circumstances having met some trouble over 2f out, and he can follow up with progress to come. Midnite Storm has improved with each of his 3 starts so far and can make his presence felt, while Respectful also merits consideration.
