Perth on the agenda for Backstage Backstage could go to Perth next week after making an untimely exit in the John Smith's Grand National. Gordon Elliott's charge was in contention when parting company with Davy Condon after being hampered by the loose horse My Will at the 20th fence. Now his trainer is looking at a three-mile conditions chase for the eight-year-old, whose record at Perth is two wins and a second from three starts. "He's come out of the race grand. There's a race in Perth for him next week. He might go for that," said the County Meath handler. "He was travelling well when he tipped up. He's got plenty of years left in him hopefully and we'll have a chance to try again."
