Good look mate. Backed OK Corral and was pretty keen on it, but looking at that ground I'm less sure now. Santini will definately go on it.

Well played mate. Never in doubt! Unlucky with Min too.

Also fairly keen on Polidam, OK Corral, wouldn't be surprised to see Minds eye outrun his 20/1 odds either in the 2.20.
WOW awful run by Kirwan, lost a bit of confidence based on ground but that was truly awful for a fairly well hyped horse!

Been a poor Aintree so far, although fortunately had a secondary bet on Ultragold in the big handicap which has brought me near enough evens for the day and slightly in profit over the two. Saving all my luck for the big one ;)

I've told everyone I know to back Blaklion each way . Cant see it out of first 4 . Honestly can't see it getting beat , only Annibale Fly to worry about IMO. Been having just a fiver each way every day I'm near a bookies . So far I've got 85 each way ranging from 10s to 14s. Probably another 20 each way tomorrow and a saver on Annibale . Would make the month a very good one lol .

I've had a decent day today, 4 places and a winner in an e/w lucky 31.

Not had time to get on here today until now so I'll go with Wigan +6 (8/13) and Villa (2/5) to make it a bad night for Leeds!

Blaklion's got to be in with a good shout but I'm of a mind to think his best chance was last year (that's not to say I won't change my mind tommorow). Usually throw a few darts at the national (Bet365 cracking offer essentially doubles your stake money which helps). I Just backed the 2 horses last year in One for Arthur and Blaklion. Stuck to the 2 because I was so keen on One for Arthur and had him in mind for the race well in advance, Blaklion was a saver bet on the day. Likely to end up with 4 runners tommorow, backed 3 already and one or two are still nagging at me!

I've backed:
Annibale Fly already a) because it nearly shares the daughters name, Annabella (glad I didn't call her Double Ross) and b) I genuinely think he's in with a fair shout if the Gold Cup didn't take too much.

Baie Des Iles, usually jumps soundly, will stay and should get the ground. Had more rest than most of the market principles.

Pleasent Company. 11/1 last year and looked to be traveling until he missed a jump and nearly went down. Plugged on to finish 9th. At 33/1 this year he could be decent value (although form over the last 12 months is week) he's a pound lower and likes the mud.

The ones nagging at me (as well as Blaklion) are:
Seeyouatmidnight- looks to.have been laid out for this and has taken some notable scalps before. Grounds not a problem and he certaimly has some class. That said he's maybe a bit short now.

Shantou Flyer - consistent, should stay, impressed by Cheltenham run. Big place chances just not sure he quite has enough to be a serious win contender.

Saints Are - likely to outrun price

Just caught up with the racing from yesterday, Santini looks some animal.

As someone who was on Blaklion last year I agree and think it had its winning chance last year, can't see it winning off top weight. Bonus point for whoever can name the last horse to win the national off top weight?

I backed I Just Know at 50/1 before it was due to run in the Grimthorpe (that was snowed off).
I've backed Total Recall this morning, would likely be well in if it had completed the Gold Cup but maybe with falling it will be a blessing in disguise?
If I fancy Total Recall then by default I must also have time for Alpha Des Obeaux as ADO was only beaten 7l by TR when trying to give it 16lbs so I've backed ADO also. Decent past form (2nd in the stayers hurdle to Thistlecrack) and it looks like this has been the plan since the Autumn for a good target trainer.
Agree with KB80 on the chances of Shantou Flyer also.
Have a nagging feeling about The Dutchman but I'd need it to be 28/1+ before I entertained it as a bet.
Pulled out Raz De Maree in the sweep at work which I'm not unhappy about either.

Well it's national day, so i'll have to select from the iconic race (lottery!) for today's selection.

£5 EW Bais des Isle

Other fancies for the day are Fix Le Cap (got 20/1), On the Blind Side, Rocklander , a multiple with Petit Moucher, Sam Spinner and Gustav Klint.

Good luck all!

I pulled Double Ross out of the sweep stake ](*,)

ADO is one that I'd not considered that could be interesting especially with 8 places available but it's giving me a headache now so will see how the days going before looking again!

Decent place money on Pleasent Company and Annibale Fly. Gutted to lose the win by a nose, just needed another stride or Mullins to get him going a bit earlier. Hats off to Tiger Roll - it's some horse that one.

Sounds like I was one of the few Cas fans not on Tiger Roll so if I wasn't going to win I'm glad that one did. No doubt a few pints getting sunk on Tiger Roll tonight :dance:
