WHO IS BETTER THIS YEAR?
TIGER ALL TOOK IT ALL LAST YEAR AND BEAT THEM ALL IN THE GRAND NATIONAL. HE JUST HAD ENOUGH TO HOLD OFF PLEASANT COMPANY BUT THIS YEAR HE RUNS WITH FOUR ADDITIONAL POUNDS ON HIS BACK AND IF OUR ESTIMATES ARE RIGHT THAT IS EQUAL TO ABOUT TWO LENGTHS PER MILE, ie ABOUT TEN LENGTHS.
THE HORSE THAT HAS BEEN RUNNING VERY WELL THIS YEAR AND KNOWS THE FENCES AT AINTREE IS ANIBALE FLYER TRADING AT ABOUT 13/1 AT THE MOMENT AND REASONABLY EXPECTED TO RUN A GREAT RACE AFTER HIS SHOW IN THE GOLD CUP. HOWEVER, WE HAVE THE JINX IN THE HORSES WE SELECT AND AS LAST YEAR WE LOST ON THE LINE WITH PLEASANT COMPANY THIS YEAR MIGHT BE THE SAME STORY WITH THE FLYER.
THESE ARE THE TWO WHO MIGHT FIGHT IT OUT AT THE FINISH AS LONG AS THE WEATHER REMAINS GOOD AND THE FORECAST GROUND GOOD TOO.
JUDGING BY THE THE BETTING THE MAJORITY OF PUNTERS FEEL THAT TIGER ROLL WINS THE RACE BUT WE HAVE DIFFERENT IDEAS AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THE ABOVE SHORT DISCUSSION.
TOO EARLY TO CALL THE WINNER UNTIL THE DAY; IF THE RACE COMES AND IS RUN ON GOOD GROUND THEN THE FLYER WILL DO FOR US AT HTIS MOMENT AND TIME!!
THE TEAM
