[PA Media] Kap Vert caused a 20-1 shock by storming to a surprise win in the Scottish Grand National at Ayr. In just his fifth run over fences, the inexperienced six-year-old was travelled strongly throughout in the hands of Sean Houlihan. Midlands National winner Isaac Des Obeaux looked to have every chance of victory but faded into fourth, while Git Maker was beaten by just a length and a half in second, holding off the 4-1 favourite Kim Roque in third.

The triumph for Kap Vert marks the biggest winner between Philip Hobbs and Johnson White since the pair took out a joint licence. Latest horse racing results
