Grand National

[Rob_the_Saint]

For those lovers of horse racing, and the blue & yellow, here is the selection to choose from:

 

 

14 12-U11P042 SHARDAM 7-10-11

Nigel Twiston-Davies Tom Scudamore

Trainer won race in 1998 and 2002. Shardam finished a good second in a Cheltenham race that has proved a pointer to the National.

Rating: 7/10. Odds: 16-1

 

 

28 6P02-FP AKARUS 9-10-04

Martin Pipe Rodi Greene

Has fallen and pulled up on only two starts this season. Might have an outside chance on soft ground.

Rating: 6/10. Odds: 40-1

 

 

 

32 12-P1112 BEAR ON BOARD 9-10-01

Alan King Robert Thornton

In a good run of form this season, although whether his short odds are justified is another matter.

Rating: 6/10. Odds: 12-1

 

 

35 6000-40R BLOWING WIND 10-10-01

Martin Pipe Jimmy McCarthy

Twice finished third in the National. A repeat is not on the cards.

Rating: 5/10. Odds: 66-1

 

 

 

36 11-30U05 SKYCAB 10-10-00

Nick Gifford Leighton Aspell

Veteran chaser whose better days are behind him.

Rating: 3/10. Odds: 150-1

 

Personally I wouldn't give any of 'em a cat in hell's chance, but hey...
