FormscanBy Gary Carson - BLUE REED wouldn’t be winning out of turn here. He bumped into an unexposed type in Dameauscottlestown at Punchestown on New Year’s Eve and despite a 4lb rise for that effort he’s capable of going close. Stepping back up in trip now may help as he was runner-up twice over this distance last season. My Good Pal has been knocking on the door and remains on the same mark as when third over course and distance last month. The lowly-rated Yoursimplythebest has also been running consistently and is another that has to be considered.
