Maze maybe busy at Cheltenham

TOM Mullins has not ruled out running Asian Maze in both the Smurfit Kappa Champion Hurdle and the Ladbrokes World Hurdle at Cheltenham next week.

The County Kilkenny trainer believes the mare is back to the kind of form she showed when winning the Aintree Hurdle and the Stayers’ Hurdle at Punchestown last Spring.

“She’s in very good form. We will keep her in the World Hurdle at least until she runs in the Champion on Tuesday and she could run in both,” said Mullins.
