Formscan By Mark Nunan - DINOBLUE has established herself as the leading mare over fences in the last couple of seasons and won the Mares’ Chase at Cheltenham for the second year in a row in March. She has performed well at this festival in recent years too, and is very much the one to beat if maintaining her form on this fifth start of the campaign. Second in the Arkle last year, Only By Night proved herself over this trip when less than two lengths behind the selection at Cheltenham, while Kala Conti was about to launch a challenge to the geldings when coming down three out in a Grade One novice at Aintree. %0A%0A%0A
