Donald McCain’s two Cheltenham Festival winners could be in action at Aintree.
Peddlers Cross was an impressive winner of the Neptune Investment Novices’ Hurdle at Prestbury Park and is set to put his unbeaten record on the line next week.
“He came out of Cheltenham great, I couldn’t be happier with him and the plan at this stage is to go to Aintree for the two-and-a-half mile novice hurdle,” the trainer told sportinglife.com.
BallaBriggs defied top weight to win the Fulke Walwyn Kim Muir and he could be in action over the big National fences.
“He will have an entry in the Topham and possibly the three mile handicap chase but nothing is set in stone,” the trainer added.
“It would be undecided at the moment whether he runs again this season but at this stage we’ll be looking at making an entry in those two races.”
