FormscanBy John O'Riordan - Cork bumper winner BALLYSAX HANK can step up on his recent hurdling debut at Listowel. Runner-up on that occasion, the Brendan Duke-trained gelding should have learned enough from that experience to go one better now. A prominent racer, the five-year-old should appreciate returning to this venue where he previously finished fifth in a big field bumper. The Willie Mullins-trained Mister Pink looks the obvious danger. Second over course and distance on hurdling debut last time, the six-year-old had won his bumper at Ballinrobe prior to that. With the remainder of those with previous form looking vulnerable, newcomer Ballyharney should be noted on his introduction for the in-form Adrian Murray stable.
