GRANGE Stud’s classic winning stallion Milan (by Sadler’s Wells) was one of the sires of the meeting at the recent three-day Aintree Festival, represented by two Grade 1 winners and a listed scorer.

For Sizing Granite, his win in the Grade 1 Doom Bar Maghull Novices’ Chase was his first blacktype success and it took his record over fences to four wins from five starts.
