PWC Danoli Chase (Grade 2)

5YO plus | Class 1 | 2m 4f | 4 Runners | Turf

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: Cian Quirke| T: A Slattery| OR: 153| D

Took really well to chasing last season, producing a career-best when landing Grade 1 Novices' Chase at Fairyhouse (2½m, soft) in April. Confirmed that no fluke when second in another Grade 1 at Punchestown (25f, good) later that month and looks sure to give Blood Destiny plenty to think about.

4/1

Smart performer on his day who proved at least as good as ever when making all in a Grade 3 at Killarney in May. Let down by jumping (bled) in the Galway Plate prior to doing a bit too much too soon back at Killarney last time.

Form: P3P-1U5

6/5

Very smart chaser who cosily landed 11-runner handicap chase at Galway (2¼m, good to soft) in August. Run best excused back over hurdles latest having been seemingly stretched by the return to further on testing ground and the one to beat on these terms back in this sphere.

Form: 125-216

28/1

Prolific novice hurdler who got off the mark at the second attempt over fences at Tramore in May, despite finding 2m barely enough of a test. Well held in the face of a stiff task at Listowel latest, though, and is up against it at the weights once more.

Form: 41-F135

Forecasts

Blood Destiny (5/4), Fleur In The Park (11/8), Senecia (4/1), Emily Love (33/1)

BLOOD DESTINY can have his latest effort over hurdles easily overlooked and has to be considered the one to beat on these terms back in this sphere. Fleur In The Park took really well to chasing last season, registering a Grade 1 success in the spring and seems sure to give the selection plenty to think about.
