Two-time Grand National winner Tiger Roll will race again in this year's race at Aintree.
He will be among 107 entries at the Grand National, which is held on April 9, 2022.
Tiger Roll, who is now 12 years old, won the prestigious race in 2018 and 2019 but was denied a hat-trick due to the pandemic.
His owners Gigginstown House Stud decided not to race him in 2021.
