Folks, while it is all relatively fresh in your minds can we start posting your thoughts on horses that ran at the Festival, whether they ran well or not, who might be aimed at Aintree please

I have already got Sunnyhillboy, Becauseicouldntsee and The Package for the National

Baby Mix looked to me that he would appreciate the flatter track at Aintree for the Juvenile.

Medermit is getting a step up in trip for the Bowl - still hitting lots of fences though if you read the in running comments


what did forumites note?

I remain convinced that Empire Levant is well handicapped.
I got my fingers burnt backing him for the County Hurdle and then stepped in again (stupidly) when declared for the Martin Pipe race.
He got a far-from-inspired ride from Harry Derham on Friday.

I read that he got injured in the lead up to the festival and it could be that, like a lot of the stable's runners, he was suffering the after effects of the coughing that infected the yard.

Of course, that could be all sh1te but he's one I'm going to keep onside for now.

Sailors Warn. The easier track will suit and he has to be held up longer. I am convinced he has a big handicap in him, althought it might just be the Swinton rather than here.

Hunt Ball. Superb jumper who looks tailor-made for the Topham as BG suggested. Owner looking elsewhere apparently.

The Giant Bolster to prove it wasn't a fluke.

Toner D'Oudaries to hack up wherever he runs next. All too late though Sad

Finally I disagree with many on here re the juveniles and will be having a large bet on Countrywide Flame to confirm his superiority, hopefully at a decent price compared to what a similarly impressive winner from a bigger yard would be.
