Autumn Angel (5/2), Warminster (7/2), Kitbag (11/2), All In The Hips (6/1), The Nail Gunner (8/1), Banana (12/1), Mellys Flyer (12/1), One Last Hug (16/1), Mrs Trump (20/1), Balmy Breese (25/1), The Spinmeister (150/1)

WARMINSTER left a low-key stable debut well behind him when runner-up at Newcastle 3 weeks ago and he looks ready to go one place better and double his career tally. Autumn Angel found only one too good at Southwell on Friday and is an obvious threat from the same mark, with Kitbag also considered given he won last time.
