Formscan - Runner-up to a smart sort of Willie Mullins' at Ludlow, who went on to score at the Punchestown Festival, BLUEBERRY WINE sets the standard on what is his sixth start over the smaller obstacles. A progressive sort over fences last summer, the eight-year-old is preferred to hurdling newcomer Someone You Loved, who was a capable sort on the level in Germany for previous connections. Geordies Dream and Ravenscraig Castle are noted too.
