Mick Winters wastes no time bringing out Perfect Woman again after she completed a hat-trick at Cork on Sunday where she made all. This looks slightly tougher under a penalty and BOHERNA LADY (NAP) may have her measure. Denis Hogan's mare gained a very easy victory on fast ground at Towcester before a fine run over a slightly longer trip here last month where she didn't get going until too late. May Dullea is at her best on this sort of ground over the trip as she showed when just failing to make all at Punchestown but the hat-trick seeking Urban Dusk has shot up the weights since completing a double in minor handicaps at Downpatrick. Mireya does best with some give in the ground and Lost Book has won once in 29 starts.
