Hedge lengthens for National glory

Hedgehunter is now a best-priced 16-1 for the John Smith’s Grand National despite pleasing connections on his comeback run over hurdles at Limerick on Sunday.

Ladbrokes decided to push Willie Mullins’ charge out from 14-1 after he finished ninth in the UL Bohemians Raceday Hurdle on only his second start this term.
