Super Off Peak to Wick!

I have purchased a Super Off Peak single from Dorchester South to Wick at £155.00.

The routing is Dorchester - Waterloo, Euston - Edinburgh, Edinburgh - Inverness, Inverness - Wick.
I have been allocated a seat on the Euston - Edinburgh sleeper (11A, following recommendations on this site!).

This being the first time in years I have bought a "walk on" fare for this journey, can I change it to go London Euston - Glasgow? Haven't been to Glasgow for years so would have an hour or two to wander around.
The Super Off Peak is showing as being valid on 1733 service from Dorchester South (connecting with Euston - Inverness sleeper), could I change to that? This would depend on getting out of work early.
Obviously all subject to availability on Sleeper, and have read here that 11A is the seat to go for, so maybe I shouldn't touch that.


EDIT: At the time of booking I couldn't seem to get RailUK ticketing site to work, it is showing cheaper fares than £155 for the journey!

Isn’t the sleeper to Glasgow compulsory reservations, so the OP would need a new reservation?

When are you travelling, aren’t there some rail replacement buses north of Dingwall in June ?
