Sandown Park Race 4 - Bet365 Select Hurdle (Grade 2) (Gbb Race)

Mullins trains KITZBUHEL (4) who showed his potential when successful among G3 hurdle company over 3200m at Gowran Park (Ireland) before a fair fifth attempting the 5000m G1 Liverpool Hurdle at Aintree three weeks ago. This is easier. Leading contender. LUCKY PLACE (3) started the season winning the G2 Ascot Hurdle before following up in the 4000m G2 Relkeel Hurdle at Cheltenham. Back down in trip and grade which is a major help and rates a main danger. BLUEKING D'OROUX (1) was a decent fourth in this contest last year. Disappointed in the G2 National Spirit Hurdle at Fontwell. Shortlist as set to bounce back. SALVER (5) holds ability to go well.
