Quinz

last 7 yr old to win the national was ?

Bogskar?

it was 71 yrs ago

Cant be many that run in the race so maybe a mis leading stat? It has come down 5 points in the last 30 mins which is odd betting for a friday night has pricewise published early?

since 1992 only 6 of 38 contenders have got round. its not a good stat if you're backing quinz.

Is defo Pricewise in morning (FACT)

not experienced enough,thats the key,can't see him getting round

Hugh Taylor tipped him up hence the move!

postives: fast ground, one of the few whos got the ground it needs,top form with nacarat hoseing up 2 days ago

negatives: jockey

Timeform like it

2009 National - Big Fella Thanks came sixth as a 7-year-old (foaled late April so technically a 6-year-old [;)]) carrying 11-1. Quinz carries 10-8 so may have a shout for a place if not the win. Several online playing five places.

Many of the 7 year olds to run where 2.5 milers and not likely to get around.

Also if you have one that stays 3 miles plus ( Quinz) then there is every chance he will run a big race. If you jump well it doesnt matter how old you are. Look at Mon Parrain in the Topham yesterday. I have never seen a horse jump better and he is only a 5 year old.

Sure Quinz has stamina doubts but he has never looked like a non stayer.

Quinz will be the second 7 year old in my lifetime:-)

It's like asking a 16 yr old to win the London marathon.Get real.
