BALTIC PRINCE shrugged off a penalty for winning here to score by four lengths at Kempton during the week. Tony Carroll's charge is worth sticking with in his current frame of mind. It's All A Game has won three times at Southwell including his latest start while My Renaissance went close over a longer trip here last time. Stanlow has been threatening to get his head back in front and Piccolo Express looks likely to take advantage of his slip down the weights sooner rather than later.
