  1. Devils Advocate


  2. a horse that falls --- and a human that gets dislodged from the saddle .

  3. Any horse that I put money on. I am thinking of introducing a new service for horse racing punters. In my system I will provide the names of horses that will not win any race and thus leave punters a clear idea of where to put their money. I could extend this system to the lottery, football pools and any other betting activity.

  4. Red Rum.

  5. Mister Ed, followed by Francis The Talking Mule.

    Barrowman above. These systems exist it`s known as laying.

  6. Me

  7. The one Eddie "The Eagle " Edwards is riding.

    He is a ski jumper, or was I sould say.

    Jolly good chap tho'

  8. Joes Edge

    No:39 Weight:10-2

    2005 Scottish Grand National winner. Expected to do better than his seventh place last year.

    Point Barrow

    No:13 Weight:10-12

    Winner of last years Irish Grand National. No doubts on stamina or ground - looks to have a solid chance

    Hedgehunter

    No:1 Weight:11-12

    2005 Winner. Ruby Walsh rides again so has one of the best jockeys in the race.

    Mckelvey

    No:35 Weight:10-4

    Aimed at the race since winnning over 4 miles last summer. Will love the ground. Great chance and my main bet

    Numbersixvalverde

    No:7 Weight:11-3

    Bidding to become the first horse since Red Rum to win back to back Nationals. Looks a tough task today

    Idle Talk

    No:8 Weight:11-2

    Fourth in the Scottish Grand National. Young and improving but high in the weights.

    Eurotrek

    No:2 Weight:11-8

    Proven stamina and has won over the Grand National fences.

    Billyvoddan

    No:6 Weight:11-4

    Stamina doubts but he is improving all the time and ran a fine race last time.

    Dun Doire

    No:20 Weight:10-8

    Improved enormously last year. Strongly fancied.

    Bothar Na

    No:26 Weight:10-6

    Already won one National although that was the Kerry National. Has handled the fences before. A good each way bet.

    Simon

    No:15 Weight:10-11

    Winner of two good races this year but best form on softer ground.

    Lami

    No:3 Weight:11-8

    French raider ridden by top jockey AP McCoy. Consistent but plenty of weight to carry. A gyspy woman told me this one would win in the pub last night.

    Longshanks

    No:25 Weight:10-7

    Plenty of stamina and has jumped the fences well before. Well handicapped.

    Monkerhostin

    No:4 Weight:11-6

    Top class chaser who ran a great race in this year's Gold Cup. Big weight is a worry. Picked by a prophetic budgie, according to this weeks Sun

    Bewleys Berry

    No:24 Weight:10-7

    Jumps and stays well and has run over the national fences. Loves good ground and stable in form so could go close.

    Silver Birch

    No:30 Weight:10-6

    Won the 2005 Becher Chase over these fences as well as the Welsh National. Unlucky to exit at the 15th fence last year.

    Kelami

    No:12 Weight:10-12

    French raider. Jockey Mick Fitzgerald would love to win this race before he retires.

    Liberthine

    No:29 Weight:10-6

    She jumps well but she might not have the stamina to win a Grand National.

    Royal Auclair

    No:9 Weight:11-1

    Proved he can carry a big weight round this course when runner up in 2005.

    Clan Royal

    No:17 Weight:10-9

    Has won two other races over the National course and finished third in last years race.

    Slim Pickings

    No:22 Weight:10-8

    Has been the subject of a monster gamble being available at over 100/1 less than a week ago!

    Jack High

    No:37 Weight:10-3

    Can make mistakes but trainer Ted Walsh knows what it takes to win a National as he won it in 2000 with Papillon.

    Ballycassidy

    No:16 Weight:10-9

    Six lengths clear when falling at the 25th last year. Could be out in front again for a long way.

    Homer Wells

    No:28 Weight:10-6

    Hasn't got the soft ground he needs to be at his best.

    Thisthatandtother

    No:5 Weight:11-5

    All wins over much shorter. Could give you a good run for a circuit but hard to see him staying the full distance.

    Graphic Approach

    No:27 Weight:10-6

    Stamina doubts but does have the right age and weight profile of previous National winners.

    Philson Run

    No:31 Weight:10-5

    Strong stayer who has won twice over 4 miles and this race has been the plan for some time.

    Gallant Approach

    No:18 Weight:10-9

    Races in a way that appears to live up to his name! Could spring a surprise if not too inexperienced.

    Zabenz

    No:23 Weight:10-8

    Plenty of stamina and could enjoy himself over the Aintree fences. Has form on good to firm ground so one to watch. Massive price and could give a good run for your money

    Puntal

    No:32 Weight:10-5

    Has run well in this race before so an outsider with a chance.

    Le Duc

    No:40 Weight:10-2

    Two placings already over these fences and a good third recently at the Cheltenham festival.

    Knowhere

    No:11 Weight:10-13

    Looked a smart prospect at the start of the season and comes from a stable who know how to win a National.

    Cloudy Bays

    No:10 Weight:11-0

    Not as good as he used to be and has fallen eight times in his career. Only for the very brave!

    Kandjar Dallier

    No:21 Weight:10-8

    Has top jockey Robert "Choc" Thornton on board to help him round. One of only 2 greys in the race

    Naunton Brook

    No:36 Weight:10-4

    Front runner with plenty of stamina reserves. Trainer has won the National before. Huge price...could run into a place

    Tikram

    No:34 Weight:10-5

    Stamina a doubt but will enjoy the ground and jumps well.

    The Outlier

    No:33 Weight:10-5

    Badly out of form in last two runs but two impressive wins earlier in the season. Would prefer much softer ground. One of only 2 greys in the race

    Livingstone Bramble

    No:19 Weight:10-9

    Three miles seems to stretch his stamina so it’s hard to see him being involved in the finish.

    Celtic Son

    No:14 Weight:10-11

    Hasn't lived up to big reputation. Top class owner and trainer team but would be a shock if getting anywhere close

    Sonevafushi

    No:38 Weight:10-3

    Not good enough for this.

  9. zippy

  10. Joes edge

    ooooooo i was right ;)

  11. what are the odds on a false start like the one we had in '93?

  12. The horse I bet on. It'll probably fall at Beacher's Brook.

  13. hope McKelvey wins as i have had a flutter on it - so the others wont win in that case.!
