The Novice Tipster

  1st Al Dancer 5/1 - 65 2nd The Golden Rebel 33/1 - 60 3rd Spiritofthegames 8/1 - 45 4th Senior Citizen 7/1 - 40 Al Dancer has a great record fresh its 1, 1, 1, 1, 15. The 15th was a Grade 3 at Cheltenham. He has only been to Aintree once for a Bumper and came 4th, but the track will suit as he likes a flat track. The distance is fine. He hasnt met these fences yet, but he jumps well so should cope.  I actually thought The Golden Rebel would be shorter than this as he scored well. Ground and trip are perfect, he has not been to Aintree but the track should be ok for him. He needs to find more here but first time blinkers might help. He could go well.  Spiritofthegames as with the others, everything should suit. He hasnt got great form at Aintree but can go well on flat tracks, so maybe these fences will help, because he is a good jumper.  Senior Citizen is another who has a great strike rate after a break. Everything looks to suit and i think he can run a big race.  My Selection: Al D
