Aintree

HurdleClass 22m4f

INDEEVAR BLEU shaped encouragingly following 8 months off when runner-up at Newbury 4 weeks ago and, with this increase in trip fancied to unlock further progress, Olly Murphy's low-mileage 7-y-o could well be the answer. The thriving Bear Market showed a good attitude when scoring over C&D 3 weeks ago and is feared. Florida Dreams and Serious Operator round off the shortlist.

    Verdict
    Low-mileage 7-y-o who was quickly back on track and looked potentially useful when resuming winning ways on handicap debut at Ffos Las (15.8f) in April. Solid reappearance second at Newbury (16.3f) 4 weeks ago and the way he shaped suggests this increase in trip will suit. Interesting.

    Verdict
    Unbeaten in bumpers and going the right way over hurdles fitted with a tongue tie, bagging 17f novice here on final start for Nicky Henderson in May. Improved further to land handicaps at Southwell/over C&D in recent months and this likeable sort ought to make his presence felt again.

    Verdict
    Is a while without a win but started this campaign in good form, just touched off on chase debut at Hexham (20f) in October. Similar story returned to hurdles at Carlisle (20f) next time and shaped as if still in good order when third at Haydock last time. One to bear in mind.

    Verdict
    Gradually worked his way back to form this autumn and he duly capitalised on a sliding mark in 6-runner handicap hurdle at Newcastle (20.3f) in November, looking about as good as ever in the process. 4 lb rise should see him competitive again.

    Verdict
    Smart and likeable veteran who proved as good as ever when landing a Fairyhouse Grade 2 in spring of 2024. However, seen in action only twice since, off 20 months prior to finishing 12½ lengths fifth of 9 to Bear Market in a C&D handicap 3 weeks ago. This promises to reveal more.

    Verdict
    Progressed over hurdles last season, winning Grade 2 Rossington Main at Haydock. Given a considerate return when finishing midfield at Carlisle (20f) and drop back to 2m didn't look in his favour when seventh in last month's Greatwood Hurdle at Cheltenham. This more suitable.

    Verdict
    Irish point winner who showed fairly useful form last term, landing brace of maiden/novice hurdles. Overfaced in Grade 1 here final outing but he did at least fare better than on reappearance when 11 lengths fourth of 9 to Bear Market over C&D 3 weeks back. Mark probably about right, however.

    Useful for Dr Richard Newland & Jamie Insole, winning 3m Haydock handicap in the mud last December. Encouraging reappearance third for Dan Skelton at Cheltenham in October but not in the same form either outing since. Passed over at present.
