Highland Love went well here last month and is respected in the first-time cheekpieces, but DESTINY BLUE makes his handicap bow for Chris Grant and should be suited by the step up in trip. The three-time winner on the level has been freshened up for a crack at this pot and makes plenty of appeal against these exposed types. Short Supply is another to take seriously.
