Last Samuri drifting badly......again.

I think that these drifts could be because the market is very quiet ahead of the Confirmations on Monday. There has been very little activity on either TLS or GP. For example about £50 has been traded today on TLS at prices between 22 and 25 - nothing else. The huge drift on Gold Present yesterday was also based on minimal activity. |

Looks like late deision on Vicente (from PN blog - 9th April)
All roads lead to Aintree this week. Unfortunately the ground there is already soft so our running plans will depend on how much more rain falls at the track over the next few days. We will confirm Vicente and Warriors Tale on Monday for the Grand National. Both schooled really well over some practice Aintree fences at David Pipe’s on Sunday along with Monsieur Gibraltar who runs in the Foxhunters’ for Rose Loxton. We will make a decision about Vicente’s participation ahead of declaration time on Thursday. If we consider conditions are too soft for him then we will keep him back for his hat-trick bid in the Scottish National at Ayr the following Saturday. |

I think there are three still to fall out and that would leave Walk In The Mill as first reserve .

Dunlaying, I believe there would have to be a ballot between Vintage and Walk if one of them could run.

Actually Binderee, I think the chief handicapper has the choice.

I read today that there is a ballot unless either horse has had it's rating raised or decreased since the weights came out. That's how it used to be so assuming that's correct unless someone knows it's been changed and what I read is incorrect.
