Saturday 6th April GRAND NATIONAL DAY Thread

I cant see Overturn winning, he ran like a donkey last time, and his trainer is in awful form. I've had a punt on Bailey Green at 11/4

 

Jason Maguire

Set it up perfectly for the 3 miler in the field on a horse 15lbs clear of his rivals. That takes some doing.

 

This Bryan Cooper looks the real deal.
Unfortunately I didn't realise he was riding in this until they had set off!

 

Disasterous start for punters in the first 2 races. Well done if anyone found that, was 66/1 this morning

 

Cooper is a star jockey 20yr old big chelts wins and aintree wins very impressed

 

He keeps popping up with big price winners, clearly a talented kid. Only 20 years old

 

Definitely having an each way bet now on Rare Bob in the National

 

The ground is dead and tacky. Look for real stayers is the plan.

 

Anyone have any of the 1st2 winners?

 

African Gold in the next with a small each way on Won In The Dark

 

Tumble weed

 

African Gold next up

 

Can't helped but be impressed with the Cooper Lad, seems to judge the pace of races really well and has had some very good winners recently, the new Ruby?

 

Solwhit for me

 

Yeah - Wayward Lad and gary does cheltenham backed them in doubles

 

Sack Bailey Greens blacksmith, doing your money thanks to some clown not fitting a horse shoe properly. That is just my luck this week

 

Won in the dark must have a good each way chance in the next at 80/1

 

I don't think that was a great ride on Overturn.

 

Agree Cyc he was bottomed out 2f from home. Maguire misjudged the pace, the ground or both.
