Taurus Grand National Horses

Seven races over fences so far for Glengouly with only one victory recorded but some other good placed efforts. The highlight of those was undoubtedly his runner-up spot behind Ain’t That A Shame in the Thyestes as Gowran Park. That was only Gelngouly’s second attempt at three miles but he shapes as if he will be at his best at around that distance.  Staying four miles two furlongs at Aintree though is a different matter and there is little evidence to go on with regards to his stamina as his sire, Coastal Path has only previously had five of his offspring try distances of 3m 4f or above. Coastal Path did have one winner at 3m 7f so it is not impossible that Glengouly could well be suited by extreme distances but there is very little to go on. Given his inexperience and question marks about his ability to stay the trip, he looks a risky proposition at Aintree.
