Scottish Grand National race card and tips - list of runners at Ayr on Saturday (2025)

The Scottish Grand National takes place at Ayr on Saturday, with thousands of punters set to descend on the course.

It's an afternoon that could have a massive saying in where the Trainers' Championship after Willie Mullins surged into contention after saddling the first, second, third, fifth and seventh-placed horses home in last week's Grand National at Aintree.

The Closutton maestro sends a number of runners over to Ayr for the National meeting - and runs six in the big race itself, including last year's winner Macdermott.

Here's a full list of the runners and riders, as well as a tip for each race:
