2025 Scottish Grand National Entries
Willie Mullins swept the board at the Grand National Festival last week and he's entered 11 in Saturday's feature, as he looks to overhaul Dan Skelton in the race to be Champion Trainer.
Mullins' novice Chosen Witness dominates the betting, despite unseating Paul Townend on his most recent start in Graded company. Willie could also be represented by first-season chasers High Class Hero, Captain Cody, O'Moore Park, Olympic Man and Loughglynn. Macdermott will also return to Ayr to try and retain the title he won 12 months ago.
Sitting amongst the five Willie Mullins' raiders at the head of the betting is Lucina Russell's Whistle Stop Tour, who was pulled up in the Ultima at Cheltenham as stablemate Myretown powered to victory. Russell could also be represented by Apple Away, who also failed to complete on her most recent start in the Midlands National at Uttoxeter.
Surrey Quest was narrowly beaten by Macdermott 12 months ago and could return to Ayr for another crack. Henry's Friend could step up in trip after finishing eighth in the Ultima. Rock My Way finished second in the National Hunt Chase at the Cheltenham Festival, after Hasthing crashed out at the second-last, and both could line up in Saturday's feature.
Other potential runners include The Kniphand for Nigel Twiston-Davies, Nicky Henderson's Wiseguy, Walking On Air for new trainer Faye Bramley, Sam Thomas' former Grade Three winner Our Power, and Dan Skelton's duo of Sail Away and Snipe.
