  When McKelvey won the 2006 Summer National at Uttoxeter Peter Bowen was quoted as saying "I think he is a typical National horse" He was very nearly right but a tendon injury picked up near the end of last year's big race prevented the victory that has been the Welsh trainer's dream for many years. Low key preparation this year and Bowen is convinced that the horse is over last year's injury problems but only time will tell.

mckelvey ticks all the right boxes and yet he seems to be over priced to me , expect a big run again and is a each /way steal
