Race preview
JUMPING JET bids for his second 'National' in just over a fortnight after showing great reserves of stamina to take the Ulster version at Downpatrick and should give a good account off a 7lb higher mark. Midnight Our Fred has filled the runner-up spot on his last three outings in staying handicaps at Cheltenham and deserves a change of luck, while Cavalry Master and Macgiloney filled the places behind Shadow Master over 2m3f at Wexford last month and both are effective over a longer trip. Birchdale still held every chance when falling two out in this race last year but needs to bounce back after being pulled up before the last in the La Touche at Punchestown recently. Stealthy Tom is a four-time winner here over fences.
