1/4

Very useful novice hurdler last season, finishing placed 3 times in Grade 1 events. Impressive winning start to chase career at Fairyhouse 22 days ago and tough to beat with improvement on cards.

Smart chaser. 2 wins from 3 runs this season. 3/1, creditable 12¼ lengths fourth of 8 to Beacon Edge in Drinmore at Fairyhouse (19.8f, good) 35 days ago. Likely to go well.

Forecasts

Blue Lord (1/4), Lifetime Ambition (9/2), Dancing On My Own (12/1), Zoffanien (12/1), Whenurgoodurgood (33/1)

BLUE LORD took well to chasing at Fairyhouse last month and is fancied to provide Willie Mullins with a sixth win in the last 10 runnings of this novice chase. Lifetime Ambition should find this a bit easier than the Drinmore and can provide the chief threat ahead of Dancing On My Own.
