Irish raider Sultana Belle is not easily dismissed though she's without a win in 14 attempts over hurdles now. PERFECT TIMING makes more appeal as he found only one too good at Uttoxeter last week and a repeat should be enough to hold off the attentions of My Oh Mount Brown. The latter was returning from more than a year off the track at Southwell last month and has the past form to figure. Nurse Ratched has won a bumper but has yet to figure over timber.
