I don’t think her Lingfield win in bad ground last time told us a great deal, other than the fact she can operate in less-than-ideal conditions. And to be fair she did it very well on the bridle there from a horse that ran well in defeat at Haydock next time, She had earlier shaped very well when third to Get Ahead, who is also in here, from off the pace at this track on her debut and I can see her going well. She has a fair bit of class, and hopefully being drawn 19 of 22, next door to Wesley Ward’s Twilight Gleaming, is the place to be.

Ignore his run when drawn 15 of 15 in the Thirsk Hunt Cup, and he has been running very well this season, most recently when second at Epsom. He hasn’t shone in his three starts here but 1m on quick ground is fine for him and he has plenty of big-field handicap form, including when third in this year’s Lincoln off a 1lb higher mark than this. He doesn’t have any secrets from the handicapper but he has each way chances.

Nicky Henderson: “This is a very suitable race due to the fact it’s for horses that have won just one race and I expect him to go quite nicely.”

AYR 1:45 Califet En Vol (James Bowen) At the time of writing, he is also running on today but we’ve backed horses up before like this and he is a very uncomplicated person, so I feel he will handle two quick runs, but of course he’ll be fully checked over and if he’s still feeling … Nicky Henderson: “This is a very suitable race due to the fact it’s for horses that have won just one race and I expect him to go quite nicely.”

Nicky Henderson: “His record at Aintree is good and if he can bounce back, I wouldn’t be at all surprised to see him go close.”

SATURDAY AINTREE 1:20 H’Cap Hurdle BOLD ENDEAVOUR (JAMES BOWEN) He ran very well in the Pertemps at Cheltenham after coming down to a competitive rating and he appears to have come out of it in good shape. He hasn’t won for a while, but is Mr Consistent and competes off the same mark as last … Nicky Henderson: “His record at Aintree is good and if he can bounce back, I wouldn’t be at all surprised to see him go close.”

Nico de Boinville: “He is back over hurdles and off a mark we hope he can be competitive off.”

1.20pm Aintree Jeriko Du Reponet I obviously wasn’t on him in the Kim Muir but it is fair to say he didn’t run up to expectations there. He is back over hurdles here then and off a mark we hope he can be competitive off, for all he is 8lb higher than when winning so … Nico de Boinville: “He is back over hurdles and off a mark we hope he can be competitive off.”
