The Leader Newspaper By Andrew Atkinson Brian Ellison trained 12-year-old veteran Definitly Red lines-up in the 2021 Randox Health Aintree Grand National on Saturday under 11st 1lb, best priced at 66-1. Definitly Red, who finished fourth in the bet365 Premier Chase at Kelso run over 2m 7f on March 6, will be ridden by Henry Brooke, due to Danny Cook suffering a career-threatening eye injury in November and remains sidelined. Brooke, back in the saddle after also being sidelined having suffered a serious neck injury, was up on Definitly Red over the National fences, when fourth in the 2019 Becher Chase in 2019. “He’s crying out for a trip these days. He’s not as quick as he once was,” said Ellison.
