not saying these all missed Cheltenham specifically for Aintree but they might be able to take advantage of having a nice rest whilst their opponents were hard at work:
Thursday
First Lieutenant
Unioniste
Irish Saint
Fox Appeal
Plenty in the handicaps as you'd expect but one who particularly catches the eye is TWO ROCKERS - only two runs all season, disappointing at Haydock when stable would have been under a cloud, then getting no further than the first at Ascot after stable had emerged from its malaise - should be fresh as a daisy.
All just entries at this stage obviously.

Friday - highlights, imo:
Art Of Payroll
Baltimore Rock (albeit he ran in and won a competitive handicap the w/e before Cheltenham)
Rolling Aces (coming off a stinker though).
Plenty in the Sefton Novices Hurdle including the aforementioned Seeyouatmidnight and a race where I'd definitely like to be with one who did n't run in the Albert Bartlett because that looked a hard,attritional race to me, other candidates include:
Beat That
Racing Pulse (turned over comfortably by Seeyouatmidnight at Musselborough but surely needing better ground)
Tistory
Irish Saint again entered in a handicap as opposed to a graded race.
I'd also throw in Many Clouds who did run in the RSA but was unlucky to be BD - collateral form suggests he would have gone close at least - and must have a chance whether O'Faolain's Boy turns up or not - OFB looks like he could be special though so not sure how keen I'd be to take him on, depends on the prices.

Oscar Whiskey might aswell have missed the festival given how early on he fell. Entered this week.
Not exactly swerved Chelt but Baltimore Rock will be a warm order on Sat
