Grand National and Getminted Tips

Well thank you to the star wars stable who opened the tipping page on the forum for tomorrows Grand National and many thanks too to all of you who submitted your tips. As usual with the National almost half the field get backed before the race as by it's very nature any horse can win. However as expected favorite Clan Royal (5/1) and second favourite Hedgehunter(11/2)were strongly backed for the win. Others mentioned in terms of winning were Jack High (14/1) and Innox (14/1). Joes Edge (20/1), Le duc (40/1) and Inca Trail (50/1) will be firmly backed on an each way by sonme of our owners while Ebony Light, Direct Access, Heroes Collognes, Silver Birch and even 100/1 Puntal have all be cited as horses who may finish in the top few. Best of luck to all of you for tomorrows National. For all tonight's Getminted Racing tips please click on Read more


Double U W Double - 8:24 - 14/1

I am very conscious that I have backed this fillie before but so far have had no return, hopefully she'll repay me for my confidence in her in the 8:24 race from Dubai.Recently bought by the Rich Rockets stable from Masters Racing shes looking for her 7th win in 27 races. Shes also been placed in 11 but has yet to hit her top potential. Her form on muddy has been excellent in the past and on this going 14/1 is an attractive price. Having not raced since the 31st of March she should be fighting fit and has a great chance of a placed finish.

La Bouillote - 9:12 - 11/1

This is perhaps the 5 year old colts favoured going at the moment. In his last race on fast over this distance he won in a race at this grade in a field of 8 in Dubai. Erratic though he had some average runs over fast earlier in his career and will need to have guns blazing if he's going to take the line tonight. Owned by the don't known stable his career winnings to date stand at £826. An each way flutter advised.

Damaged People - 9:48 - 48/1

Two wins and two second placed finishes in his last four races says it all for 'Damaged People'. In the form of his life he's out to make a point tonight. 48/1 are huge odds for this high quality horse from the Island House stable and he'll be confident of improving his stats tonight. They currently stand at 28 races, 5 wins and 15 placed finishes. With a place to run ratio of 54% many may feel thats where he will end up tonight. What do you think?
