Lyons hoping How can Doit again Ger Lyons is hoping Howd’yadoit can bounce back in the five-furlong conditions race at Naas this afternoon. The 101-rated performer finished last when sent off favourite at Fairyhouse on his most recent outing, having proven very consistent previously. He won in handicap company at Navan prior to that, and Lyons was at a loss to explain a below-par effort last time. "Howd'yadoit keeps proving me wrong,” said the Glenburnie handler. "He's that (small) size, he's (rated) 101, and he keeps doing it, so I'll take that. "He's been grand since the last day, which was just bad and I've no reason for it. "When you see him, I'd lift him up and put him in the boot of the car! "Sean (Jones, owner) keeps saying to me 'what are we going to do with him as he's 101?'. I say 'listen, I'd rather have 101 than a 61'. First-world problems!" Ocean’s Breath, who has already been on the scoresheet twice this season, runs in the seven-furlong rated race on the card and is joined by stablemate Suzie Songs. Lyons said of the pair: "Ocean's Breath is coming along. Suzie Songs is coming back from being hard to train." He also had a mention for his newcomer by No Nay Never, Southern Boulevard, in the opening maiden:- "I've a nice two-year-old running in the first. She is like that one (April Mist who won at Bellewstown) - she is that type."
