Grand National injuries: Saint Are due to return home as all horses and riders confirmed safe and sound after the Grand National


SAINT ARE is expected to return home to Tom George’s yard tonight after his fall in the Randox Health Grand National.

George’s 12-year-old was kept at the Aintree stables last night with vets, but was reported to have had a “comfortable night” and is on the road to recovery.

“He had a good, comfortable night. They looked after him well at Aintree. His lad stayed up with him and the vets checked him every few hours,” said the Slad-based trainer.

“He’s eaten his breakfast and he’s ready to come home. It’s good news.

“He walked out brighter this morning. I just think he was a bit shaken.

“He’s feeling good about it and we’re looking forward to getting him home.”
