Formscan By Gary Carson - BATTLING BESSIE had some very strong bumper form last season and is sure to be well schooled for her jumping debut here. The Helmet filly was narrowly denied in a hot Grade 2 contest at the Dublin Racing Festival before ending her season with a fine third-placed effort at Punchestown. She mixed it with the best bumper mares around last term. Law Ella has a bit to find on a line through Ashroe Diamond having chased home that rival in the Grade 2 race at Aintree. That mare was behind Battling Bessie at Leopardstown. Law Ella is unexposed though and this is a totally different discipline now. Deeply Superficial has jumping experience from point-to-points which is a help and connections will be hoping for a big show here having spent %A3385,000 on the Flemensfirth mare after her win at Lingstown last December.
