Two tips for the Scottish Grand National

Scottish trainer Lucinda Russell has her string in such fine form that she might win a race at Ayr this weekend if she entered the stable cat. From her five runners at Aintree last weekend, she ended up with two wins, two seconds and a sixth – quite an achievement.

Pride of place went, of course, to Corach Rambler who landed the Randox Grand National. No tipster rightly gets many plaudits for putting up the favourite in a big race but I am pleased to say that loyal Spectator Life readers were put on him before Christmas – three and a half months before the race – at 20-1.

At the odds on offer today, I am happy to leave things in the hands of Lucinda Russell and her team

Of course, I put up some losers too but Penworthy followers certainly showed a nice profit – 19 points overall – on the Grand National to recommended bets.
