Blaklion is 3/1 favourite with Sky Bet for Saturday's Betfred Grand National Trial after 15 horses were left in at the six-day declaration stage.
Nigel Twiston-Davies' charge is already the Leeds-based firm's 10/1 market leader for the Aintree showpiece in April following his impressive Becher Chase success in December.
His rivals are set to include Colin Tizzard's Peter Marsh Chase winner The Dutchman (6/1) with Wild West Wind (6/1) another prominent in the market.
Last year's winner Vieux Lion Rouge (8/1) is one of two possibles from the David Pipe stable along with Daklondike (12/1).
Others in the mix include Mysteree, Three Faces West, Emperor's Choice Alfie Spinner.
