Blueberry Boy set for compensation

BLUEBERRY BOY, controversially disqualified after winning at Punchestown last time, gets the nap to make a successsful step into Grade Two company in the paddypower.com Future Champions Novice Hurdle at Leopardstown this afternoon.

Truth to tell, this is not the toughest graded race ever run and Paul Stafford's game six-year-old is fancied to make all the running.

The decision of the Punchestown stewards to stand him down earlier in the month raised more than a few eyebrows.
