FormscanBy John O'Riordan - Having made the breakthrough over flights at the eighth time of asking, SHODA(4) can follow up. A smart handicapper on the Flat, the Joseph O'Brien-trained mare has subsequently run with credit in two decent handicaps back on the level. Reverting to hurdles here off a mark of 111, the five-year-old is unquestionably well handicapped relative to her Flat form. Racing against her own sex, the daughter of Nathaniel holds decent claims of adding to her three previous wins. Handicap debutant Tutu Twist commands plenty of respect from an opening mark of 103. A daughter of Jukebox Jury, she has plenty of scope to progress at this trip. Recent Cork winner Tir Og also deserves consideration despite a 6lb rise.

An extended handicap hurdle for three years old and upwards fillies only (120 = 11st 12lbs)
