Ffs ! I am only repeating what is often said. I didn't say I follow the reasoning myself. It certainly wouldn't stop me from backing a horse. Stats are there to be broken imo

The horse was placed in his first five runs for Tom George. These included two tough Cheltenham handicaps, a Becher and a Grand National. He was a fast closing 2nd in the National after a win. The horse clearly has no issues with putting two good performances together.
Like every other horse in the National he will probably lose but if you come back and tell me it's because he won last time I'll find you and stick needles in your eyes. |

At the weights he basically has exactly the same chance as Many Clouds. He has always shown a big preference for decent ground though. Rain would be a big worry.
On the other hand, Tom George could win with a rusty bike at the moment. |

Very excited with my usual unsubstantiated Grand National optimism

Good second last year , nowhere near 9th the year before ....don't see it being 3rd time lucky myself.
It sure a'int gonna be fourth time lucky. One of the very first names to cross off. |

2nd in 2015,pu last year (couldnt handle the soft/heavy ground) Wt. about right - must have decent ground. likes the course. I think may place!

I think it has a great chance on good ground. Only 4lb higher than when second two years ago, last run confirms he is in the same sort of form as he was back then. 40/1 is a huge price for a horse who who has proven his credentials over the distance and fences. I think there are a lot of doubts about those at the front end of the market.

Let's face it, if this horse wins, which it might, it just shows how much Phil Smith has destroyed the National !!

Hold my hands up , got this one terribly wrong , as I did Cause Of Causes who I thought would tail off. If someone told me Cause Of Causes was right behind the leader two out I would have put my mortgage on him winning from there.
My 3 probables were Saphir De Rhey , Vieux Lion Rouge and One For Arthur( not aftertiming , I gave this one a big shout on the thread for the horse). |
