5th last year, won over the national fences in December on soft ground.

so with that in mind he has the credentials to win it.

I wish one of these jockeys would jump of his horse and batter that starter. I wouldn’t mind but he’s an ex jockey.

I can see tomorrow’s start being an absolute embarrassment.

hard to fathom why champion jockey Richard Johnson hasn't got a ride in the national

Sams Gunner, EW, I wonder why McCains jockey is riding for Easterby.

Quoting myself but he’s now getting loads on ITV racing and so he should, let them walk in from 100 yards away or so.

is it me or do ITV do nothing for the build up to the next race, regards which horses look good in the paddock, whos sweating up, who stands out etc etc etc

I'm looking to bet online with some usefull knowledge from the people there.

they literally put the odds up 30 secs before the race and that's it.

..sorry, Matey, I tend to at watch via RUK. I suppose ITV are catering to the general viewers and not particularly racing officionaires.

So be interesting to see if the Nicholls hype horse is up to it here.

what I noticed after today was that the horses really really struggled getting home, the ground looked bottomless.

its going to be one hell of a slug fest tomorrow esp going over 4 mile.

can only see a handful finishing.

horses with good course knowledge and who have got round before will all come right in on the betting I would imagine.

and I already see the likes of blak lion drifting out. he is carrying 11stone 11. I can not see a top weight horse winning tomorrow.

Only be about 6 finishers tomorrow. If that.

Much better day today staying at home and watching in the TV.

Nice little EW bets on Ultragold in the Topham and Portrush Ted in the bumper. Only downside is I'd have had a lot more on them if I was actually there. Still, I pretty well got back what I lost yesterday.
