Hi Ross:

I don't think Fontspec sets the small caps for your font, but you can do 
it by creating a new command like this:

\newcommand{\smallcaps}[1]{{\fontspec{Serlio LT Std:+smcp}#1}}

The info generated by using plain xetex with the file opentype-info.tex 
will list the other features which can be accessed in the same way.

Hope this helps.
