Formscan By 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.

Quotes on Theflyingbee (IRE)
If she turned up in the form that she finished Navan in the last time (runner-up in December), I'd give her a fair chance. I didn't know how she would handle here. She will probably get further. She will go on better ground or heavier ground, she is very adaptable like that. The plan all along was the two Flat runs, so it worked out. Credit to everyone here, it is some track.

Quotes on Tir Og (IRE)
She has got her form back in the last couple of weeks and was in good order coming here. She is tough out, battles away and if the ground was softer, it would have suited even better. She will stay over hurdles for a while and we'll take it race by race.

Quotes on Preparations (IRE)
She was very unlucky to be carried out. Sam was very good on her. He was very cool on her after it happened. He just let her get her own rhythm and get back into the race. He didn't panic going up the hill, he just waited until they got to the top and tried to creep back into it. It was brilliant watching the finish. We didn't mind which one won! She will go back over hurdles as well. We'll try find a similar contest to this one for the other mare.

Quotes on Jennyfromtheblock (IRE)
It was a good performance, she jumps brilliantly and I'm delighted for the Whites, who live locally in Adare,. Mark Walsh gave her a lovely solid ride, kept it very simple and she jumped from hurdle to hurdle. She stays really well and will get further in time. Martin (White) had her in training with Ian McCarthy when she won her point-to-point, and sent her to me afterwards. Hopefully she can build on this.

Quotes on Pure Logic (GB)
we have had 14 seconds in the last nine weeks, so we are entitled to another winner. I went over to England with a bundle of horses this year, where we’ve had three winners and eight seconds. The horses have been running great but we couldn’t get a winner recently. I’m delighted to get this mare to win, as her owners are from Kerry. There is never a problem with them and they love the game. When this mare got hurt and I had to give her time off, there wasn’t a word said, so I’m delighted for them. She is a right mare and we brought Paddy back home from England to ride this and another one (unplaced Stormbreaker) in the next.
