FormscanBy Michael Graham - It is more than a year since INFLUENTIAL LADY last tasted success, but she could rectify that in this handicap hurdle. She competes off a handy mark of 89 as Kieran Callaghan takes 5lb off and she signalled that an eighth career success may not be far away after a third in Kilbeggan and a runner-up spot at Wexford. Sydney Cruiser is a long-standing maiden, but it is reasonable to think there is one of these races in her after two placed efforts in Ballinrobe. Juke Box Rock showed ability when staying on in fourth at Clonmel in October last year, however, he hasn't been out since which tempers enthusiasm. Watching The Clock is one that could show up well on handicap debut.
