13 winners of the Scottish Grand National in the last 42 years were beaten at the Cheltenham Festival the previous month finishing 837P5875PP235. Irishracing.com/news writes up the chances of three horses which ran at Cheltenham in March.

(1) Hasthing - the O'Neills - (16/1) - fell at the last fence in the National Hunt Cup
(2) Henry's Friend - Ben Pauling - (12/1) - ran better than the result suggests when 8th in the Ultima.
(3) Walking On Air - Faye Bramley - ( 14/1) - finished 11th in the Fulke Walwyn Kim Muir. Lost by a neck to Henry's Friend at Newbury in December 2023 ( when trained by Nicky Henderson ), and is 28 pounds better off with Henry's Friend here.

The fourth one which they didn't mention is Famous Bridge - Nicky Richards - (25/1) - which was 6th in the Ultima. Usually runs well at Haydock in the winter, and was a non-runner in the 2023 Scottish National because of unsuitable ground.
