HARRY REDKNAPP’S Grand National dream will come down to a nail-biting wait to see if his star horse gets in at the last minute.
The top 34 in the field all stood their ground in Monday’s five-day confirmations.

It means the weights for Saturday’s £1million Aintree race are headed by Gordon Elliott’s Conflated.
But Redknapp’s Shakem Up’Arry is currently 40th on the list meaning he needs six to drop out before being guaranteed a run.
Under the old rules, Redknapp’s runner would already be in, but the field has been slashed for this year’s race as part of a raft of new measures designed to improve safety.
The final 34-runner field will be declared at 10am on Thursday.
Shakem Up’Arry, who won the Plate Handicap Chase at Cheltenham Festival, moved up two spots in the rankings after Nicky Henderson didn’t confirm Fantastic Lady and Sandy Thomson scratched Empire Steel.
Angels Dawn, trained by Sam Curling, was the only other horse to be scratched, meaning of total of 52 possible runners remain in the race.
