Alex Hammond Grand National Tip – Saturday 9th April 2022
5.15 Aintree: GRAND NATIONAL –
-
Alex Hammond’s Top Six 2022 Grand National Horses
- Burrows Saint @ 20/1 with BetUK – Former Irish Grand National winner (2019) and was fourth in the Grand National last year so that experience a big plus. Get in here off the same mark of 156 and Paul Townend takes over this year in the saddle.
- Snow Leopardess @ 8/1 with BetUK – Been improving all season – winning her last three – and two runs ago landed the Becher Chase over these fences. Stepping up in trip again here but looks the sort to give the longer distance a crack and with just 10-9 in weight and the fact she’s got experience over the fences are pluses.
- Escaria Ten @ 10/1 with BetUK – Last seen running second in the Bobbyjo Chase at Fairyhouse at the end of Feb. Was only a nose behind Any Second Now there, who also runs in the National. Longer trip here will be fine, having run third in the NH Chase over 3m6f last season at Cheltenham. Only 8 years-old too and that was the winnng age of last year’s hero.
- Fiddlerontheroof @ 14/1 with BetUK – Very consistent chaser that is having his first run in the race. Is yet to finish out of the first three over fences, from 10 runs, and is a sound jumper. With trainer Colin Tizzard handing over to his son Joe at the end of these season, it would be a fitting win.
- Kildisart @ 24/1 with BetUK – Likes Aintree – won at this meeting back in 2019. First try over these fences and in this race too. Had his problems in recent years and was off the track for 462 days, but returned last time at Newbury to run well (4th). Will be better for that outing and looks worth a try over this longer trip at a venue we know he likes.
