News
The team behind Randox Grand National hope Myretown are favouring a run at Haydock on Saturday as they seek a rise in the weights for their star to secure his passage to the Aintree showpiece.
Joint-trainers Michael Scudamore and Lucinda Russell are eager to get a run into the nine-year-old before the Grand National weights are revealed next week, and are leaning towards the William Hill Half A Mill Grand National Trial Handicap Chase in preference to an alternative option at Kelso.
Paul Nicholls will rely on one of his most faithful servants in Pic D'Orhy as he bids to keep his recent hot streak going in Saturday's feature Betfair Ascot Chase, a race he described on Monday as "a straight shootout" between the dual winner and Jonbon.
