This horse always comes into his own at Aintree on decent ground.

Has won a grade 1 novice hurdle race over 3m at Aintree at the Grand National meeting. It also won the 3m handicap chase at the Grand National meeting last year.

Has targeted the National all season and ran a promising race at Ascot a few weeks ago finishing third.

The negatives are that he is relatively young and jumping isn't great (ok this might be a big negative!).

But of the outsiders I think this may have a chance on a nice weight.

Good to see a bit of money for the horse in the last few days.

Think their is very little chance that he will take to the fences. He's not the best of jumpers and I would be surprised if he completed the course. Not for me.

Agree here. Ground looks a concern and jumping has not been impressive at all. Also quite young for this sort of test

The ground is currently good(ish) so don't worry about the ground.

Must admit I have question marks over his jumping but could run very well.

If he does take to the fences he's a big price.

after watching him win at last years meeting i thought that would be a major worry if he ran in the big one.
Just too many mistakes, he is very young too

After what Battle Group did at Aintree, this horse has to be on the radar next time it takes on the more conventional fences at that track.
