This year's Troytown Chase winner was in the picture until a mistake two out.

The Big Dog and his midlands owners, Colin and Damien Kelly, are still dreaming of running the Aintree Grand National after the 9 year old finished third in the Welsh National yesterday.

This year's Troytown Chase winner was in the picture until a mistake two out saw the Peter Fahy trained chaser beaten home by The Two Amigos in first and The Big Breakaway in second.

The win for The Two Amigos represented a cathartic comeback of sorts for the horse's trainer Nicky Martin who forgot to enter the horse in the Welsh National last year.
