Grand National Betting Form 2006

The Form of the Grand National runners is not always easy to tie down as a lot of the main contenders run over the smaller obstacles prior to the National in order to protect their handicap marks. Prior experience is vital and in recent years the winners have all performed very well over the National course.

2		HEDGEHUNTER	Last Years winner and the one to beat following excellent second in the Gold Cup.
3		CORNISH REBEL	Quirky sort but with loads of ability and not without a chance.
4		THEREALBANDIT	Would be surprised if he takes to the National fences.
5		IT TAKES TIME	Will be handy but would probably prefer soft ground small chance of making the frame.
6		LE ROI MIGUEL	Jumping usually lets him down and probably will not get home.
7		NATIVE UPMANSHIP	Has chances as has run creditably in these races over the years but probably to old in the tooth now.

9		SILVER BIRCH	Another Nicholls runner with ability but has not run well this year.
10		WHISPERED SECRET	Unknown quantity over these fences and best left alone.
