MI CAPRICHO faded out of contention over a longer trip at Musselburgh last time. The quicker going here is in his favour and this is also a drop in grade. Little Jo would probably have preferred more give in the ground but can’t be left out of calculations but Strangerontheshore has been very disappointing since dead-heating at Beverley in April. Turbo Command and Propagation may need this but End Zone has a chance if forgiven a poor run at Thirsk.
