This won't take much winning and UPTON WOOD may be capable of defying top weight having run Karl Marx to half-a-length over 2m6f at Wincanton last week. Winged Express also only found one too good, at Southwell, last week while Mexican Border, Etheridge Annie and Dropzone could all figure if in the mood. It's only a couple of years since Whipcrackaway was racing off a mark of 122 but he's nowhere near that good nowadays on recent evidence.
