Youghal Champion Stakes winner Yahoo Perlena cannot be opposed in the Noel Ryan Tree Surgeon Munster Oaks over 525 yards at Waterford on Saturday.

Shane O’Gorman’s bitch has won seven of her last ten races and she clocked the quickest time of the event in the opening round with 28.31sec and also set the standard last week with 28.43sec.

She has a great draw on the fence and can soon be dictating the pace.

Mandeville Best and Slippery Hanna, who won the other semi-finals, are the main threats.

Paul Organ’s Mandeville Best clocked a quicker sectional time than the selection last week and was only five spots slower with 28.48sec. However she faces an uphill task from trap three.

Slippery Hanna won her eliminator in 28.55sec and has will have plenty of support.
