Shotgun on the cusp
Following the latest forfeit stage of the Grand National, Shotgun Willy is just the wrong side of the cut-off point for the maximum field, in position 42. Ross Comm and Spot Thedifference are set to carry the same weight as him, 10-5, but I think I'm right in saying he got drawn out before them.
With Ground Ball ultimately more likely to run over the Mildmay course than the big fences, especially is there is more rain, this leaves Richard Guest effectively looking for just one more defector in the next few days to get his charge a run.
Shannon's Pride in the Topham is his only intended runner during the first two days of the meeting, Our Armageddon presumably not sufficiently over his pre-Cheltenham setback as this has been his ultimate target for most of the season.
