Grand National and Thursday's Selections

It's Grand National week and looking ahead to the big race we can put forward our three against then field.
Firstly last year's winner Numbersixvalverde has been brought along nicely and is reported in great form by his trainer Martin Brassil.
Our second selection is Longshanks. I spoke to trainer Kim Bailey earlier this week and this lightly raced gelding has responded well to treatment after injuring his foot and so long as the ground isn't too fast he is expected to go close.
Finally Point Barrow, the big gamble of the race, has to be a danger to all. He will not mind any ground gets the trip and everybody in Ireland appears to have backed it.
To recap;
Numbersixvalverde
Longshanks
Point Barrow.

As for Thursday's racing.
Having studied the Leicester card I have come up with a couple of decent priced selections;
In the 2.45 race Pat Will has an excellent each-way chance on past performances and the stable have won this race in the past.
The conditions race at 3.20 may go to He's A Humbug. This one goes well fresh is from a stable in form and is dropped in class.
My young sidekick Danny is confident of a good run from Turpin Green in the 2.35 at Aintree.
Once again three for Thursday;
Pat Will 2.45 Leicester
He's A Humbug 3.20 Leicester
Turpin Green 2.35 Aintree
Good Luck with whatever you are backing.
