Denman For Grand National?

Well those of you who thought Harry (now that's not Harry of Frank Bruno fame) but the newly acclaimed punter/owner superstar thinks that he is going to go to the Grand National with Denman, you should consider not believing everything you read in the papers. Lets look at this a bit more closely, lets assume that he is in top shape after he wins the Aon and goes to the Cheltenham Gold Cup and runs riot over his stablemate Kauto Star he will then have 2 Gold Cups under his girth. Will Paul then let Denman go to Aintree we suggest not.

In all probability he will be put in mothballs and kept in his stable for another season to go for the hat trick. On the other hand if all does not go according to plan in the Gold Cup and Kauto beats him there will probably be some form of investigation about his health and he will not turn up at the Grand National. All in all, while we like the idea, we think it is all talk and forget backing him ante post at 8/1 as it is only the bookies who will gain on these ante post wagers.
