The Grand National Soon
The king of horse races is coming up very soon and according to Bet With Aus’ Grand National Preview it’s all to play for. Apparently Sychronised is looking like the likely champion to win the race and he’ll be aiming to make it this and the Cheltenham Gold cup a two win race. I sure hope he does it, as he offers favourable Grand National odds, I could make a lot of money if that horse gets into gear! Fingers crossed. Synchronised’s trainer, Jonjo O’Neill, will be pushing him as much as he can, as the horse is currently the top weight at 11st 10lbs, which may be difficult to get after the 2012 John Smith’s Grand National. Apparently, it’s easy to write off horses that are carrying over the weight. Age is also a factor when it comes to Grand National champions, with 8 to 11 being the optimal stage. There’s also the British Horse-racing Authority to consider, with horses who score under 140 points of their official rate generally not winning. Finally, horses with a poor jump record will find the Grand National hard. Check out with Bet With Aus for the rest of the tips.
