Most of these come here in good form including Minella Berry, a winning poin-to-pointer who was having only his third start over hurdles when landing the odds in a Tipperary maiden. DEPUTY'S PASS had been threatening to win before landing a Roscommon maiden then fell three out when in the lead over fences back there next time. He's a progressive type who can make a successful return to the smaller obstacles. Knockrea followed a spell between the flags with a victory in a Clonmel maiden, though that was back in April, but Face Value has been going very well and will enjoy the conditions more than most. Winning bumper Zigger Zagger has yet to score over jumps and his last run in March was over fences while Be Seeing You, who won over the course and distance on fast ground last month, disappointed at Galway and has no form in these conditions.
