Gordon Elliott has confirmed riding plans for all 13 of his intended Randox Health Grand National runners. Big-race favourite Tiger Roll will, of course, be ridden again by Davy Russell as they bid to win the National for the second year in succession. Elliott has, however, also finalised jockeys for all his contenders as he readies a formidable battalion for Saturday, which is set to break the record for the number of National runners from the same stable. The Irish trainer told herald.ie: “Davy Russell rides Tiger Roll, Keith Donoghue rides Outlander and Paddy Mullins is on Don Poli. They are in good order, and obviously our main chance is with Tiger Roll again.
