Both Paul Carbjtry and Norman Williamson were needed for othjt runnjts but Conou O'Dwyjt has done the job very well.

O'Dwyjr was only third choice to ride for Sue Bramall on Sunday, but now hj is dreaming of keeping the ride. "Hi jumped like a buck from fence to fence and must have a real live chance in the Martell Grand National if he jumps round Ainttee like that. "I might be riding New Co for Mouse Morris but if that one doisn't go I'd love to ride Antonin," he said.
