The Novice Tipster

What makes a Grand National Winner? For me the horse has to jump well, have the stamina and above all i do like a horse to have had experience of the fences. So i went through the runners up to number 46. And i marked out several pointers. ·          Horses who have won over 3 miles (11 out of the last 11 have all won over 3 miles before the National) ·          Horses who have won over hurdles this season (5 of the last 6 winners, all had a pipe opener over hurdles) ·          Stamina, i want see who has proven stamina, so looked at horses who have completed 3m 6f+ ·          Also course experience is interesting, especially with that very long run in. So i have looked to see if a horse has won a race at Aintree, either hurdles or the Mildmay course or even over the National Fences. ·          For me experience over these fences is only positive, as the can be very daunting. ·          Because the fences are so big, you need a horse who jumps well, saying
