FormscanBy Alan Magee - MAJECTIC FORCE made a pleasing start over fences at Cork last month and may be able to go one better. The point-to-point winner was also successful in a maiden hurdle over this trip at Punchestown last season and was only headed close home when bidding to make all on her chase debut with Irish Emery 13 lengths back in third. The selection’s stablemate Lantry Lady and Fun Fun Fun were both successful at Grade 3 level over hurdles last term and are interesting recruits to fences, while Karia Des Blaises made an encouraging start to her chasing career when placed behind Only By Night in a Grade 2 at Cork.
A steeplechase for five years old and upwards mares only that have not won a steeplechase that are EBF eligible

Quotes on Fun Fun Fun (IRE)
That was super. The race suited her, a quick enough two miles, and she jumped great, a little bit keen. She'll go to Fairyhouse next, I don't know if two-and-a-half miles there will really suit her but it's mares novice Grade 1 so she'll go there. I can't wait for her to go chasing next year, her pedigree is all staying chasers. I think when she goes over fences she might be able to go out in trip. If she jumps as well she could be hard to catch in those mares chases next year. She wants to win and she just loves jumping. In her bumpers we were trying to hold her up but when she's so good to jump you're better off just letting her roll away and I think that's improved her.

Quotes on Hanoi Jane (IRE)
She had some good runs and last time in Ballinrobe (third) he maybe should have let her roll on a sharper track. She’ll win another one. She jumps well, stays well and might win a little novice chase. The O’Reilly’s (Peter and Rose) also bred her and it’s great for them that she has won here. She’ll keep going for the summer. I must say Punchestown have done an absolutely terrific job with the ground. We have had no rain for a week and it's beautiful ground.

Quotes on Iris Emery (FR)
It was a good performance. For a maiden, first time, she jumped very well and that brought me a lot of the way round. The second had some decent form pre-Christmas and I'd say for a small field it probably wasn't the worst maiden. They are two decent types and it's nice to get the job done with my one. Maidens first time are not normally that straightforward, even out in front on her own. If they were all like that it would be easy.

Quotes on Lantry Lady (FR)
she’s entered in the Mares Hurdle at Cheltenham and we’d love to go. It’s a step up in trip but all she does is stay. I’d say she definitely wants a good ease in the ground so we would be cautious of that but the guys would love to go to Cheltenham and I think she is entitled to go. She’s obviously a really nice mare and I’m delighted for the Marigas (owners) who are great supporters of ours. She was impressive winning her maiden hurdle here last year and then we put her away as she was a bit immature. She’s had a couple of niggles so it’s taken us a while to get her going again and I was concerned about fitness and it was only her second run. She’s confirmed what she did in her maiden hurdle and has stepped forward again. She’s a lovely mare to go breeding with in years to come.

Quotes on Miss Pronunciation (IRE)
That was great, she did it well. She's starting to settle a lot better than she was and I'd say that's bringing out the improvement in her. She loves that ground. We had the mother, she was a Topanoora mare and she loved that heavy ground. When it's like that we'll keep going and see what there is. The mother stayed but this one's not slow, I'd say two miles on that ground is her trip. She's improving the whole time.
