Ahead of tomorrow’s big race, we asked a few Spectator contributors, and friends of Coffee House, for their Grand National tips. Here are their responses:
Robin Oakley
Champion trainer Paul Nicholls has had 40 runners in the Grand National without winning. He trains the favourite, My Will, but you can also get 22-1 on his Big Fella Thanks, which makes him the each way value.
Peter Oborne
Two horses catch my eye, both at reasonable odds. Brooklyn Brownie was bred by John Kenny, Master of the Ormond Foxhounds, won his bumper in Ireland before being sold to north country trainer Malcolm Jefferson. Brooklyn Brownie will stay the distance, enjoy the expected good going, is in flying form and he ran very well over the National fences at Aintree last November. He should be backed each way at 28-1. Nicky Henderson is winning everything this year.
