FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - TREES VALLEY got no great peace on the lead at Ballinrobe last time, and she might be able to get back on the winning trail now. She won her point-to-point on what was described as a soft surface, but her two quick Tramore festival victories were achieved on good going. Ballinrobe was described as yielding to soft and it could be that she’ll enjoy the forecast summer like terrain at Listowel. Donagh Meyler probably won’t feel the need to force it as much at this two and a half mile trip either. With no less than six handicap hurdle first timers the market will need to be watched closely. One of these, Coosan Clover, in first-time cheek-pieces, is definitely a player.
