Re: Grand National: 8th April

Whats the process for picking National winners then - first off they have to have a good name I reckon as it doesn't do shouting on some French nag that you can't pronounce.

Then whittle those down with a few historical trends and form stats and end up with 3 or 4 to cheer on, usually up until the first fence where they all come a cropper

Anyway, my first shortlist of the names I like are:

Clan Royal 11/2
Hedgehunter 6/1
Innox 14/1
Cornish Rebel 16/1
Jack High 16/1
Garvivonnian 20/1
Ebony Light 25/1
It Takes Time 33/1
Nil Desperandum 33/1
Baron Windrush 40/1
Just In Debt 50/1
Kymandjen 50/1
Calling Brave 50/1
Inca Trail 50/1
Strong Resolve 66/1 (Is that the Grey one?)
Puntal 66/1
Shotgun Willy 66/1
Hakim 100/1
Bounce Back 100/1
Desailly 100/1
Halexy 100/1
Native Upmanship 100/1
The Last Cast 100/1
Rince Ri 125/1
Wrags To Riches 150/1
Cassia Heights 200/1
Turnium 250/1

Any news/views to help me cut down that lot?
