FormscanBy Donal Murphy - By far the highest rated runner in the line-up, this should be straightforward for DINOBLUE. Completing a Cheltenham and Punchestown double in the spring, the likeable chestnut finished second on her return in the Fortria at Navan in November and should appreciate this drop in class, back against her own sex. Third to the selection at Cheltenham, Shecouldbeanything is the second choice. Found to have atrial fibrillation after pulling up in the Kerry National at Listowel, she was a fine third in the Galway Plate prior to that and also finished an admirable seventh in the Irish National. Disappointing in the Becher at Aintree, Bioluminescence will need to bounce back to form if she is to feature. While the lowest rated runner in the line-up, Look To The West has some solid form to her name and it'll come as no surprise if she manages to make an impact.
