Detroit On The Comeback Trail

Detroit City is among 13 horses declared at the 48-hour stage for the Baltika Beer Aintree Hurdle tomorrow as he tries to make up for his Champion Hurdle failure.

Terry Warner's grey was a big disappointment at Prestbury Park as he trailed home sixth behind Sublimity and now steps up to two and a half miles.

Other Champion Hurdle runners ? Afsoun (third), Kawagino (fifth) and Asian Maze (seventh) ? again take on the Philip Hobbs-trained five-year-old.

Asian Maze, trained by Tom Mullins, took the Aintree prize 12 months ago, while 2005 winner Al Eile also tries again.

Arguably the most interesting runner is David Pipe's Gaspara, owned by his father Martin.

The four-year-old filly won a £75,000 bonus for her connections with victory in Sandown's Imperial Cup and the Fred Winter Juvenile Novices' Handicap Hurdle at Cheltenham.
