GRAND PLAN Greenall’s special mission for Iroko

- DAVID YATES

OLIVER GREENALL reckons Iroko has “the right profile” for the Grand National as the Cheltenham Festival hero steps out on the Aintree trail at Haydock Park on Saturday.

The JP McManus-owned sixyear-old, who captured the Martin Pipe Conditional Jockeys’ Handicap Hurdle Cheltenham in March of last year, looked set to miss the rest of last season after a winning debut over fences at Warwick last November.
