Oscar Time    Form: 52-263   (M Lynch / S Waley-Cohen)

Bought by the Waley-Cohen's specifically with this race in mind. 2nd in 2010 Irish Grand National and could provide a memorable Grand National/Gold Cup double for connections  -  £20 Free Bet

Quinz    Form: 0-1131   (P Hobbs / R Johnson)

Winner of the Racing Post Chase in February, but there hasn't been a winner of the Grand National under the age of eight for 70 years, which doesn't bode well for trend backers  -  £50 Free Bet

Backstage    Form: -57011   (G Elliott / P Carberry)

Unseated rider in race twelve months ago but has won two hunter chases in Ireland on recent starts and subject to ante-post gamble. Trainer Gordon Elliott won the race with Silver Birch in 2007  -  £25 Free Bet

Calgary Bay    Form: -56242   (Miss H Knight / H Frost)

No win for two years and trainer Henrietta Knight wonders whether he'll get the trip. Finished sixth in the 2010 Gold Cup but this looks a big ask in his first Grand National  -  £50 Free Bet

State Of Play    Form: 44/P3-   (E Williams / P Moloney)

Placed in the Grand National for the last two years, getting on in years now and not been seen on a racecourse since his 3rd place at Aintree 12 months ago. Sure to get a run for your money  -  Bet Now

Tidal Bay    Form: 4-3226   (J H Johnson / B Hughes)

sixth in the Gold Cup but has never won over two miles chasing. Won an Arkle and in his best form over the longer trips this season, but carries plenty of weight and this looks a very tough ask  -  Bet Now

Chief Dan George    Form: 1-753F   (J Moffatt / P Aspell)

Winner of the 2010 William Hill Trophy at Cheltenham but a faller in that race this year. Not shown the same level of form this season. Would be a fairytale winner for trainer returning from illness  -  £25 Free Bet

Vic Venturi    Form: U-7744   (D Hughes / A E Lynch)

A winner of the 2009 Becher Chase over these fences but unseated rider on first National attempt twelve months ago and should prefer the going if on the soft side  -  £25 Free Bet

Grand Slam Hero    Form: 1FP18P   (N Twiston-Davies / A Coleman)

Modest form this form and pulled up in handicap chase last time out at Ffos Las and a faller in last Summer's Galway Plate. Overlooked by stable jockey who prefers chances of Roll Along  -  £50 Free Bet

King Fontaine    Form: 1-11P5   (M Jefferson / D O'Regan)

Pulled up in the Grand National Trial at Haydock in February but bounced back with decent fifth place finish in the Stewart Family Spinal Research handicap Chaset at Cheltenham last time out  -  £25 Free Bet

Golden Kite    Form: 1d10019   (A Maguire / S J Hassett)

Can't Buy Time    Form: F-8P5P   (Jonjo O'Neill / R McLernon)

Looking to get around the course for the first time in third attempt this year. Modest form this season and easy to avoid in the betting with other horses having better claims  -  £50 Free Bet

Royal Rosa    Form: 5U-42P   (H Johnson / P Gallagher)

Unseated rider twelve months ago on first attempt in the Grand National. Has form at Aintree though finishing 2nd in the Becher Chase last Autumn. Needs one to come out to guarantee run  -  £25 Free Bet
