Great result but Arghhh.

Stewards so not over yet.

good race, whichever had won, they have come across the track it's poss they may look but thought twig deserved it

ok called one now sry

No fallers, two pull ups.

Aintree a different challenge now. Very few fallers if any in this contest. The old brigade chuntering about no spills and thrills. The new mob smiling to themselves about how they have got their way. Which camp are you in?.

Constitution hill targetting the national

All the field jumped the chair and bb no problem, just a glorified hurdle race.

I am in the camp of wanting to see my horses complete the course, preferably in the first 3 or 4. If they make a bad mistake, they don't deserve to win but I am not a fan of 20 starters and 5 finishers in any race. I laid off Mr Vango so not much more to come if he does get the race. The place bet on Twig looks safe.

Aintree  as we knew it long gone  becca,  sad but things change ,Less injuries always a bonus , but the spectacle is no longer

National field looks like a Hcap hurdle turn for home

Very good win for Bear Market. Made all and still won despite 2 or 3 cruising behind him.

used to be more drama in haydocks fixed brush hurdles, sanitized that much now ,other than been different not really sure what purpose it serves , if you want different x country a better spectacle

if I was a CYNIC I,d say they've lowered the fences again from last yr, some looked smaller than the old water jump on sandownds back straight another fence serving no purpose
