The Package to go off fav tomorrow IMO - great chance despite 7 year old stats, how many 7 year olds have run in it over the years, not , many hence bad stats

There have been 35 six and seven year old which have run in the National since 1994 and the best they've been able to do is 6th last year with "Big Fella Thanks" with only 6 of the 35 actually finishing.

I don't think it's just that they're rags more likely inexperience. If we just look at the ones which were 25/1 or less rather than the rags than:

Martin, I admit they have a terrible record but it may not be as bad as it seems thats all I'm getting at. Re the original list - its quite frightening how many of them were Pipe horses! I actually don't particularly fancy either of the 7yo market leaders but I would give an ew squeak to Palypso de Creek. He's been running over fences since he was a 3yo so in 'horsey' years he is a 8 or 9yo lol
