Verdict

KATESON's latest Aintree third looks solid so he could prove the answer. The Paul Nicholls-trained Take Your Time dug deep to follow up his Ffos Las reappearance win over C&D last time and is likely to go well in his hat-trick bid, while Al Dancer should also have a say if he can reproduce the form he showed back hurdling last time.

  1. KATESON

  3. AL DANCER (FR)
