Lossiemouth has been backed into 13-8 from 15-8 while Con Hill remains the 8-11 fav.

" Mullins has also seen a huge gamble build on I Am Maximus , who will defend his Grand National crown on Saturday. William Hill make him their new favourite for the £1million race at 8-1. Elsewhere, the Closutton boss' Impaire Et Passe is coming in for support in Thursday's Manifesto Novices' Chase, where he will take on Hendo's Arkle winner and current 5-2 fav Jango Baie.
