2011 GRAND NATIONAL

ARBOR SUPREME - 1pt win @ 50/1
------------------------------

NICHE MARKET - 1.5pts @ 25/1

2009 Irish Ntl winner.
2010 Grand Ntl carried 11’ 4lb, may get in around at the same weight.
Mid-division, blundered 12th, lost place 24th (2nd Canal Turn), behind when pulled up after 3 out (tchd 18-1)

Now trained by Paul Nicholls, could shorten in price with a big run in the Hennesy.

Won't be 25/1 if Ruby Walsh decides to ride him in the National.
-------------------------------------

11 of the last 14 winners (including the last 5) were aged either 9 or 10.
1 x 8-year-old,
1 x 11-year-old
1 x 12-year-old winner

Only five post-war winners have won carrying more than 11st 5lbs and two of those were Red Rum!

DON'T PUSH IT is up against it as an 11yo - he carried 11' 5lb last year and will no doubt have to carry more this year.

BLACK APALACHI is also up against it as an 12yo - finished 2nd in 2010 carrying 11' 6lb and will likely have to carry more this year.

BE LUCKY!!
