Naas Race 8 - Dar Golf Newlands Chase (Grade 3)
BLOOD DESTINY (1) was seen most recently finishing 8L third in the 4224m G2 Horse and Jockey Hotel Chase at Thurles. Likely to figure prominently at this level. ESPANITO BELLO (3) is a likeable veteran with solid course form having recorded five wins at this venue. Hard to discount. REBEL GOLD (4) produced a decent 5.5L fifth tackling a Fairyhouse G3 over 3419m. Serious contender. SENECIA (5) holds each-way claims. Failed to complete the course in the G1 Dublin Chase. Finds a more suitable contest and may atone.

Resumes off a 43 day letup. Last run finished sixth of 12 runners at Fairyhouse in the G3 on January 11 over 3419m, slow track; 5.5 len behind The King Of Prs carrying 66.5kg at $19. The start before that; finished sixth of 18 starters at Thurles on December 21 over 3218m, 7 len behind Jeaniemacaroney carrying 72.5kg at $7.50. Forward showing expected. Right in the mix if anywhere near his best.

Second-up today. First-up after three months didn't finish the race at Leopardstown in the G1 Dublin Chase on February 2 over 3419m. Previously second-up won by a head Killarney on May 12 over 3419m defeating So Scottish carrying 70.5kg at $34 in a hurdle. Hard to fault on his best form.
