Aintree meeting Day One - 2023

very interesting interview with Henderson. No mention of chasing when talking about next years route - just mentioned the 3-4 obvious grade 1 hurdles and said "people might find that boring, we won't find that boring"
 
Nice start Craigy ! , well done keep it up mate ... :encouragement: .

Can’t complain BC, just keeps us playing for the weekend.

Added Latenightpass to go with magic Saint.

3 winners & a second, pleased with how the day went overall apart from Stage Star who went out like a light when challenged.

Loving the 2000ad reference Robith :glee:
 
If I was to have a bet outside the National it would be on Grey Diamond. Fancied him big time for Grand Annual but balloted. Won on his very next outing and I reckon more to come.

Lucinda's in the Sefton will run really well too. Hers always do in that race.


She does LOVE that race !!
