Hedge still hunting for Aintree glory

Hedgehunter is still on target for the John Smith’s Grand National despite taken out of the Cheltenham Gold Cup at the latest forfeit stage.

The Trevor Hemmings-owned 11-year-old has a fantastic record over the Aintree fences and wrote his name into the history books with one of the most impressive performances in recent years when he beat Royal Auclair by 14 lengths in 2005.
