Verdict

LANGER DAN would, in all likelihood, have edged out Impaire Et Passe in the Aintree Hurdle had he not suffered interference on more than one occasion and he's worth a chance to confirm that impression in what looks another fascinating encounter. Sir Gerhard is another potent weapon for Willie Mullins as he bids for the trainer's title.
