    I think all Cheltenham form goes out the window with Aintree. Completely different track: flat, quick, sharp. Think about it, any horse that is 2m4f+ at Chelters is a 3m1f at Aintree, 2m @ Chelt = 2m4f Aintree.


    Kauto Star will win the toteport Bowl
    Master Minded will win Melling Chase
    Cloudy Lane or Bewley's Berry to win National

    By the way, what are the odds of a faller in the national to win the Scottish National?

    That's a weird one, too weird. Doubt you'll get any odds for that.

    When i mean a faller in the national, i'm on about the Aintree Grand National.

    Think about it, a good horse can fall as well as a bad one.

    Remember Double Thriller in '99, he was a rock solid favourite, fell at the 1st
    Likewise Micko's Dream and the great Aldaniti in 1982 both fell at the 1st.

    But IMO if a horse falls between the first & Becher's first time(6th), maybe Canal Turn(8th)
    it won't take too much out of the horse.

    Plus the Scottish National is 2 weeks from Aintree, so anything is possible.
