Max McNeill is hoping Threeunderthrufive can help his beloved annual trip to Ayr go with a successful swing.
Champion trainer Paul Nicholls is sending his charge north for Saturday’s showpiece Coral Scottish Grand National. Threeunderthrufive spearheads a crack team of McNeill’s horses heading north of the border for the two-day spectacular by the seaside.
The leading owner savours going back to his roots and can’t wait for his eight-year-old to battle for the big one. Threeunderthrufive's challenge carries massive emotional connection for the team. The gelding was named after the exploits of McNeill’s late father and ex-professional golfer Ted who was three under par through five holes to lead The Open at Royal Portrush in 1951.
