The Monopolies Commision have clearly had a word with David Pipe before Saturday 's Betfred Midlands Grand National as the Nicholshayne handler does not have a runner . The Uttoxeter marathon has been a benefit for the Devon operation which has dominated the feature for the past four years . The absence of a Pipe representative means the likes of Jonjo O'Neill , Paul Nicholls and Venetia Williams will fancy their chances of landing another prestigious staying event . O'Neill has the ante-post favourite in Catching On , who was ridiculously impressive at Exeter on deep ground last time , travelling through the race like a horse well in advance of his current handicap mark .

He is difficult to oppose given the manner of that performance , while Classic Chase hero Hawkes Point will also have his followers given the strength of his connections in this race and the fact he has been freshened up since Warwick . The layers look to have those two pegged , however , and there could be a little more juice in the price of SAMINGARRY ( Uttoxeter , nap , 3.50 ) who hails from a yard that could not be in better form . Five of Nigel Hawke 's last 11 runners have obliged , which is an outstanding feat given the size of his stable , and the selection looked a chaser capable of taking fairly high rank last year . He never quite lived up to that billing but the first-time headgear and tongue tie applied today could produce a better showing and he looks overpriced at his odds this morning . The coral.co.uk Winter Derby looks a terrific race and TRYSTER ( Lingfield , nb , 3.05 ) is taken to continue his rapid progress .
