Baltic King has reportedly come out of his recent victory at Beverley in grand shape and is likely to run in Saturday’s Betfred Sprint Cup at Haydock - providing the going is not too soft.

The first three home in the Wragge & Co Finesse Juvenile Novices’ Hurdle at Cheltenham last Saturday – Moneytrain, Don Fernando and Saintsaire – are among 111 entered in the JCB Triumph Hurdle on March 13.

Volano, ante-post favourite for the JCB Triumph Hurdle, will continue his Cheltenham preparations with a run at Sandown tomorrow.
