MADDENSTOWN may be the value in this line-up after making a positive start to his hurdling career at Punchestown this month. An extra half-mile won't do his cause any harm and there should be further improvement to come Donagh Meyler's mount now. Deal With It also took a step in the right direction over timber at Limerick and will benefit from the better surface that is forecast this afternoon, ensuring he looks the main danger. Halsafari is next best on form while first-time hurdlers Fur Elise, Miss Shoe City and Baily Thunder demand attention.
