Ginger McCain reckons the National is getting too easy?

Question

Ginger McCain reckons the National is getting too easy? He said: "Last year, when I saw all those horses coming back onto the racecourse at the second-last I thought, 'It's not Liverpool'. You are eliminating the Aintree factor by making it softer, not making it better. They should have a top weight of 12st and add more fences - you don't make it to the top of Everest by taking 10,000 feet off the top. It is all about good horses and brave men."

Apparently  Sir Peter O'Sullevan’s reply was: "There are very few men who can talk utter rubbish more engagingly than Ginger."
