Noble Yeats faces 38 rivals in his bid to make it back-to-back victories in the Grand National on Saturday.
Sean Bowen has been the eight-year-old’s regular partner in the saddle since Sam Waley-Cohen’s retirement in the wake of last year’s famous win and he is booked to ride once again.
Any Second Now and Delta Work, the second and third in 2022, also take their places in the line-up in Saturday’s 17:15 as does antepost favourite Corach Rambler.
Derek Fox has overcome injury to partner the dual Ultima Handicap Chase winner and is bidding to ride the winner of the world’s greatest steeplechase for the second time.
