Trainers Quotes

A key trial for the G1 Stayers’ Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival, the Grade 2 has transferred to Wetherby after Cheltenham’s fixture last weekend was abandoned.
 
The established hurdlers among the entries include Main Fact (David Pipe), a winner of nine consecutive races on the Flat and over hurdles prior to finishing seventh in the G1 Long Walk Hurdle at Ascot in December.
 
On The Blind Side (Nicky Henderson) captured a Listed handicap hurdle at Cheltenham in November and was in winning action again last month in a handicap hurdle at Market Rasen.
 
Lake View Lad (Nick Alexander), Itchy Feet (Olly Murphy), who have both run to a high level over fences this term, are also engaged.
