Jan Faltejsek, who has been working for leading French trainer Guillaume Macaire in Normandy since the end of October, is heading north this weekend to ride again for George Charlton in the Scottish Grand National. Jan worked for several years in Charlton's stable in Northumberland. He will be on Knockara Beau at Ayr. The horse has plenty of weight, and is said not to like a big field, but Jan is looking forward to joining forces with this good gelding, on which  he finished 7th in the Cheltenham Gold Cup in 2012.
