She's In The Game returned to action with another victory at Dundalk. She had Exquisite Acclaim back in fourth but has an 11lb hike to contend with today. Maid To Shine also won at Dundalk when landing a maiden but Miramis is preferred on a recent third at Gowran. Verhoyen made all to win this contest off a higher mark last year but may set up the race for TOUCHING CLOUDS if adopting similar tactics. The latter beat a subsequent winner at Gowran in August and goes handicapping for the first time on her reappearance with Dermot Weld’s yard in top form.
