A debut winner at Kempton, MERINGUE shrugged off a penalty to score at Lingfield last month by over three lengths. There looks more to come from her and she’s worth sticking with despite conceding so much weight. Mulhima has been thereabouts in both starts without threatening the winner and Euro No More may finish closer stepping up from 7f along with Beverley runner-up Northern Lyte. Arms Of The Angel is related to a couple of winners and a newcomer to note.
