Glynn set for double assault on Aintree

COUNTY CLARE owner/trainer Noel Glynn is set to launch a double assault at Aintree next week, with Becauseicouldntsee and Gonebeyondrecall on course to take on the famous National fences at the John Smith’s Grand National meeting.

Progressive chaser Becauseicouldntsee takes his chance in the £950,000 John Smith’s Grand National on Saturday, April 9, following a pleasing recovery from surgery on an injury sustained in the Grade Three Paddy Power Chase at Leopardstown on December 29.

Despite injuring a back leg during the race, the eight-year-old Beneficial gelding still ran superbly to take second behind fellow John Smith’s Grand National contender Majestic Concorde.
