The English raider CASPIAN PRINCE was unlucky last time out when narrowly touched off by Battle Of Jericho in a course and distance handicap and with a big pull in the weights here, he's taken to reverse that form and he will be hard to catch from the front. Mabs Cross is a progressive filly who ran a big race in the King's Stand last time and if she can reproduce that run she will be the main danger to the selection.
