'Stronger' Seabass for Aintree26th February 2013
Connections of Seabass believe he will be a "stronger horse" when he has a second crack at the John Smith's Grand National in April.
Pat Glynn, who bought the stayer as a foal and heads the Gunners Syndicate that owns the 10-year-old, feels he is physically tougher than last season, when he was third behind Neptune Collonges in the Aintree showpiece.
Seabass, trained by Ted Walsh, has also had a lighter campaign than last term and was having just his second run of the winter when third to Roi Du Mee in the Bobbyjo Chase at Fairyhouse on Saturday.
