Final Orders could seek to emulate the great Tiger Roll in the pursuit of a Glenfarclas Cross Country Chase and Randox Grand National double.
Gavin Cromwell’s 10-year-old son of Camelot skipped around the unique course at the Cheltenham Festival, prevailing by two and a quarter lengths under Conor Stone-Walsh at a price of 7-1.
In the manner of horses such as Balthazar King, Cause Of Causes and Delta Work he may now line up for the famous marathon event at Aintree, with Tiger Roll the only horse to pull off the double despite valiant efforts from the aforementioned.
“He’s very well, he’s come out of Cheltenham great and he’s most likely now to head to Aintree,” said Cromwell, whose charge is guaranteed a run following the latest acceptance stage and is 10lb well-in on British Horseracing Authority figures after his Festival effort.
“He jumped fantastically, that was his biggest asset on the day, and he got a fine ride from Conor Stone-Walsh.
“He’d definitely appreciate the ground if it was on the quicker side, we knew those conditions at Cheltenham would play to his strengths.”
Cromwell had two further runners in the cross-country feature, both of whom held their own with Vanillier finishing third and Stumptown coming home fourth.
He said of their efforts: “They both ran very well, but the ground was on the quicker side for both of them and that left them flat out all the way.”
