MODEL COUNTY LASS won three times between the flags and made a successful start under Rules when landing a bumper here in April. She came up against a better-than-average maiden when beaten less than a length by Araucaria over today's trip at Navan last time and is unlikely to meet one of the winner's calibre here. Dual point-to-point winner Aughnacurraveel has shown real promise in bumpers without managing to win one and should be suited by hurding while Miracle House showed a liking for this trip and testing ground with a fine effort behind Cool Oscar at Gowran last week. Whats On The Menu has had a dozen starts in points and bumpers without scoring but there was nothing wrong with his second to Littletown Lass at Downpatrick though a bigger threat may emerge in the shape of Traffic Article, who will be ideally suited by today's trip and ground after a good run behind Frontier Spirit over 2m5f at Perth.
