Formscan By Gary Carson - This looks like a nice opportunity for BLOOD DESTINY back over hurdles. The seven-year-old took a handicap chase at the festival here in fine style and looks nicely treated in this event, considering he is rated 156 now over fences. Buddy One wasn’t disgraced when eighth in the Galway Plate on his last visit and could be a danger. He has a mark of 142 over timber. Paul’s Dream has a nice weight with her mares allowance and Alan O’Sullivan taking off 5lb. She could get involved at the finish.%0A%0A
