Hot little race for the level - Fier Jaguen has been putting up some decent figures in the pointing field, was hoping he would have been missed in the market but no such luck in this era where everything is available to punter and bookie

Jumped right at every single fence at Chepstow. Bechers and Canal Turn could be interesting. No jockey has won the 2 hunters at Cheltenham/Aintree on different horses since the war.

Flemenstar, he hasn't been missed due to last Time where it was the bet of the century at an opening price of 7/2, backed to 8/11....only for the meeting to be abandoned.

Am I the only one who dislikes the use of "brown bread" as slang for dead on here? As many on here know, I am not a bunny hugger but imo it lacks both wit and respect.

That Race did not look pretty to me....Maybe its an age think but that did not look comfortable viewing...I am not a snowflake either.

Fences look quite forgiving though. Perhaps it's more a case of average hunter chasers going quicker than they normally would.
The better hosses looked comfortable enough. |

By:
The Grand National has always been my favourite Race but the older i get the less comfortable i feel about it...Just sayin.

No the race it used to be acey. Nowadays plenty of horses hare round like greyhounds brushing the spruce out of the way. Bechers a shadow of the fence it used to be and the chair falls apart due to the poor jumping. The days of concentrating on outstanding jumpers long gone, just a glorified handicap nowadays.
