FormscanBy John O'Riordan - Recent Mayo National runner-up SALVADOR ZIGGY might be able to go one place better under Jake Coen. Despite having to concede weight all round, the Gordon Elliot-trained eight-year-old has the class to be involved at the finish. Even at these revised weights, the gelding has every chance of confirming form with those that finished behind him at Ballinrobe last time. Stablemate Tullybeg is certainly one that may have taken a step forward from that aforementioned race. A staying on fifth on that occasion, it was only the geldings second start since November. A previous course winner, the nine-year-old has the services of Danny Gilligan in the plate. Mousey Brown took full advantage of a lenient chase mark of late but will need to take another step forward to complete the hat-trick.
