The Aintree meeting thread

[LongsightM13]

Starts tomorrow. Put your tips, selections, gossip etc in here.
Not as good a meeting as Cheltenham, but many of the festival winners are running again in Scouseland this week — Big Bucks, Simonsig, Sprinter Sacre etc, and of course Synchronised trying to do the rare double of Gold Cup and Grand National.
And of course there is the added comedy value of the scantily clad Oompah Loompah's and petty criminals' molls on what the Mickey's laughably describe as "ladies day"

Looking forward to it. Especially Sprinter Sacre.
Laying Synchronised till the cows come home

I think Henderson and Geraghty could have another storming meeting. Their Shakalakaboom is a good ew shout for the national at about 20-1.

Hunt Ball takes on Riverside Theatre doesn't he? I think he will have the beating of him

Hunt ball can't win again can he? I said the same at Cheltenham though!! I also said sprinter sacre wouldn't get up the hill :/

Its a shame Sizing isnt going over to take on Finnians Rainbow if ever there needed to be a rematch was in that race. Still think Sizing would of won that race if they were to have jumped the final fence.

Giles Cross been backed down from 20/1 into 9/1...could do well if the ground's soft
