Dual Grand National hero Tiger Roll, who also won five times at the Cheltenham Festival, dominated his three rivals to reach the next stage of the poll to discover the Racing Post readers' favourite racehorse. 

Tiger Roll received 60 per cent of the vote, with dual Champion Chase winner Moscow Flyer in second on 25 per cent. Inglis Drever and Troy completed the voting.

The top 20 horses will be whittled down to a final five to be profiled in National Racehorse Week and put to a vote of all Racing Post readers.
