Aintree's Grand National meeting gets underway on Thursday for three great days racing. Each day I'll share my tips for the big races. Check out my picks for Friday and Saturday via the links below. Hopefully I'll point you in the direction of some winners!
Nicky Henderson can cement his position at the top of the trainers championship as he has a couple of very good chances elsewhere on the card. I like Rolling Star in the opening four year old Hurdle and Captain Conan over 2m 4f in the Manifesto Novices' Chase - I hope both can bounce back from defeats at Cheltenham. The highly strung Kid Cassidy wouldn't be without a chance either although he has top weight to carry in the Red Rum Handicap Chase. Read my tips for Friday's racing here.
