2021 Grand National Tips
Horses Tipped For The Aintree Glory | Saturday 10th April 2021
Can Tiger Roll make history on April 4th 2020 by winning three in a row? We backed him for the last two years and we’re backing him again for the 2020 Grand National!
Stamina in bucket loads and one of the few runners who regularly runs over the longer distances. Was 2nd in the Becher Chase so clearly likes the Grand National fences, won last time out and has never fallen or unseated his jockey.
Winner of the Ladbrokes Trophy Chase in November, Cloth Cap is another very exciting prospect and one that could give owner Trevor Hemmings another Grand National win in 2021.
Has been running really well for his new trainer Paul Nicholls and riding partner Bryony Frost in preparation for the 2020 Grand National. Really going for the long-distance chases this season, winning at Taunton and finishing third in the Welsh National and at Haydock.

the 100/1 winner.
Past winners of the race have statistically fallen into a narrow band of age, weight and form and once you can identify which horses fit the trends, you can narrow down the field and look more closely at the horses with a realistic chance of winning.
Focus on horses between the ages of 8 and 11 years old. In the last ten years, all winners have come from this age group.
The weight a horse carries is a very important factor as obviously the horses carrying the biggest weights will find it much tougher going than those who carry less. Trends suggest that horses carrying more than 11-03 will struggle around the demanding Aintree course.
Also look at a horse’s form and pay close attention to jumping ability. Though entry criteria stipulate that a horse must have placed in the top 4 in a race of 3 miles or more at least once, those that consistently place should be favoured.
Once we’ve whittled down the entries using the stats above, we are usually left with around 15 horses that fit the bill. From that list, we can start selecting our tips and our aim is to give you four or five horses we feel will be in with a shout at the last fence.
