Grand National Free Tips For Punters
To help punters pick a winner, the JumpingJockey.com team will provide horse racing fans and gamblers with free tips for the Grand National and all the races at the three day Aintree Festival to help punters beat the bookie.
(PRWEB) April 2, 2008 -- In keeping with Jumpingjockey.com's policy of providing free tips for big racing events, fans of the most popular horse race in the UK, the Grand National at Aintree will receive free tips and advice once again from the jumpingjockey.com team (http://www.jumpingjockey.com).
To help punters pick a winner, the JumpingJockey.com team would like to point out some interesting trends for the Grand National over the past 15 years which highlight the likely profile of the next winner;
| | - 20% of the winners were favourite, that's only 3 from 15.
- 86.6% of the winners were 9 years old or older with 100% being between the age of 9-12. (the majority being 9 and 10 years old).
- 80% of the winners finished their last race in the top 5.
- 80% of the winners had odds in double figures.
- 90% of the winners were carrying less than 11 stone, only Hedgehunter has managed to carry more at 11-1.
|
And of course, the Irish factor, although only a third of the winners were Irish, that third has come in the last eight meetings at Aintree indicating that this meeting will likely be dominated once again by the Irish raiders;
If you use these as guidelines for the current crop of runners, you end up with the following;
Those that meet the winners profile are;
| | - Bewleys Berry
- Comply Or Die
- Mckelvey
|
Those that just fall short of the winners profile;
| | - Point Barrow
- Slim Pickings
- Snowy Morning
|
Those that fall short of the profile but are proven and will be thereabouts making them good place bets are;
| | - Hedgehunter
- Butler's Cabin
|
The weather is also going to play a big part and this could be one of those years when a big priced outsider could land the spoils. Paul Nicholls is also making all sorts of noises regarding his runner Turko and given his uncanny ability to put out winners and predict they'll do well can only further add to the complexity that is predicting the Grand National!.
As always, the feedback from the JumpingJockey.com team is to have fun and hope that all the horses and jockeys get home in one piece. this is an extremely difficult race to predict so punters should not go into it thinking they can make huge profits.
JumpingJockey.com's tips for the Grand National and the rest of the Aintree race card will be published on the day of the race at http://www.jumpingjockey.com/freetips.php, it will be free of charge for all. The only sure thing according to the JumpingJockey.com team is the 2007 Gold Cup winner Kauto Star who is running on Thursday at Aintree. Many people dont realise that the Grand national is just one race in a three festival so there will be more tips for Thursday, Friday as well as Saturday.
