Flooring Porter and Sire Du Berlais go head to head in the Liverpool hurdle once again.
The attention may be on the chasers today as the 2024 Grand National gets underway at 16:00, but the hurdlers haven’t been forgotten as a competitive Liverpool Hurdle with some top-quality horses precedes the big race.
Sire Du Berlais goes on the search of his third consecutive win in the Liverpool Hurdle this afternoon which would bring his tally to one behind Big Buck’s who won this event four times between 2009 to 2012.
The hattrick seeking gelding came fifth at the Cheltenham Stayers’ Hurdle which has historically been a good indicator for top performers in this race with 11 of the last 19 winners coming in the top five in that race before winning the Liverpool Hurdle
He can be found at a best price of 6/1 (14% implied chance) at Williamhill.
However, the money seems to be on last years third, Flooring Porter who finished 9 lengths behind Sire Du Berlais and was second behind him the year before.
He’s been knocking on the door in this race and recent races and Gavin Cromwell will be hoping his star hurdler can go one better today and build on his impressive Cheltenham Stayer’ Hurdle performance that saw him come second behind Teahuppo.
He is a best price of 4/1 (20% implied chance) of doing so.
