There was cut in the ground when PIEMAN'S GIRL came good at Yarmouth last time. She's upped 6lb but there should be more to come from her. Chepstow winner Picc of Burgau has two ways of running but is due one of his better efforts while Johnny Splash has won three times on the Polytrack here and should also be thereabouts. Danzoe remains on a winning mark after scoring at Southwell and Anytimeatall has a shout on last year's best efforts though arrives out of sorts.
