MRS BOJANGLES was beaten only a head when stepped up to today's trip at Brighton a week ago. She makes more appeal than Caledonian Gold, who is steadily improving and was placed at Leicester on her handicap bow. Marcle is another who should go well on the back of a couple of placed efforts but Brave Archibald is now 10lb higher than when scoring on the Polytrack at Lingfield in August. Leia Organa is preferred to stablemate Lady Argentum now handicapping and Here's Two is another handicap debutante to note.
