    In depth

    Verdict

    Capla Huntress landed a gamble when upped to 1m4f at Wolverhampton and is 7lb higher today. SUBLIMINAL makes more appeal given he recorded a course and distance double back in January and was beaten only a length back here in March. Quemonda went close again after winning here on her handicap debut while Mystic Dragon was beaten only a head at Wolverhampton last time. Janus is another with a shout off his current mark and is preferred to Red Gunner.
