Aintree Grand National Day 2009

Well the wait is nearly over and this years Grand National will get under way at 4.15 pm on Saturday. My short list mentioned in earlier blogs has been reduced down to State of Play, but I have added Snowy Morning (pictured) who ran third last year. He will be my ‘saver’. Willie Mullins the trainer believes he has too much weight and he will know a lot more about it than me but in my opinion the field is not as classy as last year and if Snowy Morning is fit and well I am sure he can run a big race again. State of Play comes here a fresh horse. He won the Hennessy Cognac Gold Cup at Newbury in 2006 and his trainer, Evan Williams, reports that he is in great form. All the latest news from Aintree can be found on their we site. Be lucky!
