Forecasts

Blood Destiny (8/13), Nusret (4/1), Jazzy Matty (9/2), Common Practice (12/1), Morning Soldier (25/1), Paradise Lost (40/1), Your Honor (100/1)

BLOOD DESTINY impressed in pretty much every department when a smooth winner starting out for Willie Mullins and he's a very useful prospect. Nusret will find this less demanding than the Grade 2 he contested last time, with Jazzy Matty another to consider.
