Trainer Tom Gibney is in no rush to commit to future plans with Intense Raffles following his disappointing trip to Aintree for the Randox Grand National.
Last season's Irish Grand National hero was ante-post favourite for the world's most famous steeplechase a few weeks ago, having bounced back from two ordinary runs over hurdles with a fine effort to finish a close second to Nick Rockett in the Bobbyjo Chase at Fairyhouse in February.
