THE FERRY MASTER looked one to follow after shaping very well when fourth in the Scottish Grand National in 2021, but he didn't manage to go on as hoped last season. However, given the promise that he showed as a novice, the 9-y-o could be worth another chance to get back on track after 6 months off. C&D winner Court Dreaming is feared most, ahead of Wye Aye.
