Rock My Way looks the right sort for Ayr contest
Western Daily Press
|April 12, 2025
JOE Tizzard could spring a minor surprise by sending out Rock My Way to win the Coral Scottish Grand National at Ayr.
All the pre-race chat has revolved around the Willie Mullins battalion, with six contenders chasing the £200,000 on offer as the reigning champion trainer tries to steamroller his way to a second British title.
It is Tizzard who can take home the lion's share of the money though, with Rock My Way arriving in Scotland on the back of a fine effort in defeat at the Cheltenham Festival.
Having just his second start for the trainer, Rock My Way found only the well-treated Haiti Couleurs too good in the National Hunt Chase, coming home a four-and-a-half-length runner-up despite what was an average round of jumping.
