Formscan - PERFECT HOPE has filled the runner-up berth in both previous starts in nurseries and the booking of Billy Loughnane is a persuasive factor in supporting her bid to make the breakthrough. Having handled the Polytrack well at Kempton on her penultimate start, it will be surprising if she is inconvenienced by switching to Tapeta. Swapping a visor for cheekpieces could assist Mick's The Boy and he is one to monitor in the betting, while Soldier's Echo and Jazzy Bay are each-way options.
