Aintree Festival form reads 1/2/1/1, has two placed efforts at the Cheltenham Festival so clearly targeted at the big handicaps. Handicapper appears to have his measure as he hasn't dropped him much for the usual11-10 not to finish seems generous with Bet £3-65 imohttps://community.betfair.com/aintree2011/go/thread/view/121613/30225155/battle-group?post_id=538734769#53873476911-10 not to finish seems generous with Bet £3-65 imoThu, 03 Apr 2014 16:56:07 -0500Entered for hurdle race on the thursdayhttps://community.betfair.com/aintree2011/go/thread/view/121613/30225155/battle-group?post_id=538653647#538653647Entered for hurdle race on the thursdaySat, 29 Mar 2014 13:22:34 -0500I take the question marks about whether he will stay the trip. Like Always Waining I think you can ignore the form as a guide. Before winning twice at Aintree last year it read 6/5/F/11/3. He is consistently a plot job for the Spring Festivals.https://community.betfair.com/aintree2011/go/thread/view/121613/30225155/battle-group?post_id=538573327#538573327I take the question marks about whether he will stay the trip.

He says that Neptune Collonges was the first to win with a LTO of longer than 50 days since Aldaniti. Looking at this racecard online he won in February 1981.https://community.betfair.com/aintree2011/go/thread/view/121613/30225155/battle-group?post_id=538570367#538570367I've gone next door and looked at Paul Jones' Aintree betting guide.

The problems are that hold-up horses rarely win the race and his form this year has been non-existent. He hasn't ran this yearhttps://community.betfair.com/aintree2011/go/thread/view/121613/30225155/battle-group?post_id=538568827#538568827He profile reminds me a bit of Inca Trail who I backed in 2006 who ran very well until his stamina gave out two from home.
