Formscan By Gary Carson - WEDDING PRESENT has been placed twice since graduating from point-to-points and can get off the mark now. He was a fine third in a decent enough contest at Cork first time up and improved again when just giving way in the closing stages to Mullaghanoe River at Leopardstown last time. The step up to two-and-a-half miles seemed to suit then and over a similar trip on a stiff track he can collect now. Giantofaman was behind the selection in fourth at Leopardstown and looks held. Third Chance, who was well behind Wedding Present at Cork, ran much better at Limerick last time and may get closer now. Willie Mullins' representatives in bumper always command respect and Super Mix is an obvious danger. He was no match for Kick On Boss on his debut at Gowran but the winner looked decent then and a few of those behind have decent enough form. Lots Of Memories has been runner-up on his three outings and may have to settle for minor honours again. Nearly Nama'd was a moderate second to Byerley Babe at Thurles and needs to improve from that.
