    If you can cringe past Chamberlain there is some interesting comments from the handicapper on this.

    Weights released today, Tiger Roll rated at 166, a rating O'Leary has said he will not allow the horse to run off.

    https://www.racingpost.com/news/2021-grand-national/i-hope-he-runs-for-the-public-elliott-on-7lb-national-rise-for-tiger-roll/473751

    Would be tempted to take a punt on Minella Times at 50/1 who looks chucked in off its weight.

    166 my lord.

    He would have been my fancy and even allowing for getting the hurdles prep, his last two runs have been woeful. I can't see how Williams gets him right for Aintree.

    My main hope for it.
    Loved how kind and caring Walsh was with him in Gowran.

    Every owner and trainer thinks their horse is unfairly handicapped.

    Tiger wasn’t winning this year I reckon. Hasn’t been running well recently . Hope he runs well in the cross country but form suggests otherwise

    Saw he is gone from the national, had not heard he was out of the cross country also.

    Been in bad form, might well just be put to stud now.

    There dead right, the handicapper has crippled Tiger Roll, a horse that hasnt even won a Grade 1 race, is now 11 years of age and looks past his best. 168 OR thats 1lb inferior than Bristol De Mai who is a multiple Grade 1 winner and has won and being beating narrowly in Grade 1s already this season.

    Id say Hemmings and Jonjo might not based on that annihilation job earlier by Cloth Cap. Looks to have a stone+++ in hand! Some performance!

    O Leary's are dead right. This horse hasnt won a Grade 1 over fences and hes been given a rating of 168. Id of pulled him meself, what a performance yesterday and one of the best training performances you'll ever see getting him back to his best at 11 after 2 gruelling GN wins. The handicapper has Easyland rated 167 he was bet to beat that hound Alpha des Obeaux yesterday and Some Neck whos a handicapper :pac:

    Cloth Cap might be well in, but he is too short a price.
