Boys back on track

What’s Up Boys, off the track since injuring a hock at Wetherby 18 months ago, is on course to return to action next month as he starts his build-up for another crack at the Martell Cognac Grand National.

The Philip Hobbs-trained grey, winner of the 2001 Hennessy Cognac Gold Cup, was runner-up to Bindaree in the Grand National two years ago and is quoted at 25-1 by William Hill for the April 3 contest.
