Junior has been left in the Coral Scottish Grand National on Saturday after his early exit at Aintree.

David Pipe's charge had his whole season built around the John Smith's Grand National but came down at the second fence and would carry top weight at Ayr.

West End Rocker, another early Aintree casualty, is also still in the mix for Alan King. King could also run the novice Walkon.

Benny Be Good, Knockara Beau, Fruity O'Rooney and Galaxy Rock are also towards the head of the weights.

Paul Nicholls, looking to follow up the victory of Neptune Collonges, runs ante-post favourite Harry The Viking, part-owned by Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson.

Matt Sheppard's Ikorodu Road, winner of two decent races recently, is another leading fancy to stand his ground.

Lie Forrit, 2010 winner Merigo and the Maurice Phelan trained, Eider Chase victor Portrait King are also among the 35 left in.
