Tiger Cub appeared to appreciate the step up to 1m2f when a close second at Nottingham last time so dropping back in distance may not be ideal. Really Lovely is interesting, however, as she missed the break and then pulled too hard when fourth at Pontefract. She shouldn't be far away if Jamie Spencer can get her settled, while Breaking The Bank wasn't beaten far in a better race at Newbury last time. Mcvicar and Travelling both disappointed last time, however, and may struggle to give weight to PLYM. Richard Hannon's filly has been put up 6lb for her all-the-way win at Salisbury but has a willing attitude and may be able to shrug off the extra here.
