Rogue Angel unlikely to line up at Aintree

The Gigginstown House Stud-owned eight-year-old benefited from a brilliant front-running ride from conditional jockey Ger Fox to claim victory in the Fairyhouse feature, reducing trainer Mouse Morris to tears as he paid tribute to his late son, Christopher, who tragically died last summer from suspected carbon monoxide poisoning while travelling in South America.
Rogue Angel is reported to have taken his exertions in his stride, but with him sitting 70th in the Grand National list and therefore unlikely to make the cut anyway, Morris is considering alternatives, with the following week’s Scottish Grand National at Ayr a possible target.
