It's Probably Me was staying on over 2m in a Listed race at Taunton last month so is likely to be suited by this step up in distance. Molly Ollys Wishes has placed over the minimum at Uttoxeter and Fakenham but looks a less obvious stayer. The interesting one is TEMPLE HIGH, who was very green in her one run in a bumper here last year. She’s been given plenty of time to mature and this trip shouldn’t be a problem given she’s a half-sister to the useful Midnight Tour. Proper Ticket has run a couple of sound races over this trip at Ludlow so can’t be ignored.
