Formscan By Gary Carson - FIREBIRD was impressive on her first outing for Paddy Twomey at Cork 10 days ago and will be a short price to follow up. The Lope De Vega filly was a big money purchase after a promising effort on debut at Ayr last October and started to pay back that investment with her maiden success last time. This is a lovely opportunity for a follow up win. She is rated 13lb superior to Matter Of Fact, who needs to step up on recent efforts but may be the one to chase her home. Gerrit's Gem won a Cork maiden on his penultimate start before finding life tougher in handicap company. He has to give away weight to the younger fillies.
