Captain Caroline came good at Wolverhampton last time and may be improving. She's 5lb higher here but that shouldn't prevent another good run and Mike Murphy's filly looks the danger to WALL STREET BOSS. James Fanshawe's gelding clearly found 1m1f too sharp last time and will almost certainly step up on what he's shown so far now going handicapping. Stiff Upper Lip won here last year and is starting to come down the weights again while Gamble has shown enough to suggest she'll be winning soon in this grade.
