Irish National 2nd April

They're making a mistake with Bellshill IMO. Even if he won today, that'd mean he'd have had a better chance in the Grand National and that is worth more. I think the trainers title in Ireland shouldn't affect the million on offer for the GN personally.

I've backed Mall Dini today (fairly obvious case)
and
Dounikos... a little bit of blind faith/hope that Elliott would have been right that the extra distance would suit him.

Bellshill could still run at Aintree. I remember horses running in both nationals in the past.

Bellshill ran a great race and I thought he was home and hosed turning in. I hope they go Aintree with him as well, although it had to be doubtful.

A couple of ew bets for me. General Principle & Moulin a Vent @33s. Both missed Cheltenham for this. GP was Giggi's No1 horse for this race last year. The 2 Mullins horses look tasty and could prove to be in a different class although I'm gonna oppose them.

Great pick Doctor. I shamelessly followed you in on GP, so I owe you one :highly_amused:

Good pick doc, well done

Been out all day today, does anyone know where the trainers title is at? (I assume Elliott is further ahead now that he was this time last year?)

Thanks guys. I had to chuckle as WH gave me 36/1 after the boost :highly_amused:

What are your thoughts on the ground for the Aintree Nash?

Well done Brital. Glad to see you've had a nice touch.
