The sire is Sumbal, and the dam's side carries the influence of Presenting, a stallion whose offspring have made some excellent jumpers over the years. Whether those genes translate into ability on the track is something only racing will answer.
What Hill Of Berries does have in its favour is the trainer sending it out. J P Dempsey's yard at Carbury in County Kildare has already sent out 16 winners this season — that is a productive yard by any measure, and horses leaving that stable tend to arrive fit and ready to run. First-time-out runners from a yard in that kind of form are always worth watching, even when there is no previous evidence to go on.
