GRAND NATIONAL
***** - outstanding chance
**** - solid claims
*** - each-way consideration
** - slow
* - very slow
ANY SECOND NOW - ***
Third off a mark of 152 in 2021 and then second off 159 last year, this year’s top weight will now have to try and defy a mark of a whopping 167 and despite a lovely warm-up victory in the Webster cup over two and a half miles this will surely be too hard an ask at the age of 11.
