2 of the shorties gone already
That was a wild enough renewal.
A JP winner and 2 more JP horses in the places. The romance of it
Was that win or each-way?

The horse improved massively for the application of money
And at top price.
They won’t have been able to lay off at much better

Paul Byrne is landing in a helicopter with Jp. He’d know what’s going on.

Willie goes from never winning a National to winning 3 in a row. Mad stuff
Around 2018 Gordon was winning nationals and had a gold cup. Both him and Willie had one Irish and aintree national between them with Gordon having a gold cup and Willie none.
Willie has four nationals since then and two Irish ones plus five gold cups.

I forgot about Hedgehunter. Sure that was when Willie couldn’t train chasers apparently
Townsend could easily of won the Stayers Hurdle Champion Hurdle Champion Chase Gold Cup & Grand National if Ballyburn got a gap. Outrageous.

That must have been an above-average amount of fallers? So much for the softer fences

Damn right. A fiver is my max bet x 2
That sounds like a real fairytale win. Willie Mullins training a JP McManus top weight to win the Grand National. All we need to hear now is that Rob Heneghan plumped for the winner and lined the pockets of his legions of followers.

Skelton lands the bumper for a four-timer. Townend got caught in traffic on the Double Green horse but might not have gotten to the leader in any case
The fairytale is complete. Rob really is the man. He might just be about to make me break the habit of a lifetime and start gambling.
I see Johhny Dineen laid IAM for £100,000. At 9-1. With the price going into 9-2 it must have been nearly impossible to hedge that or lay some of it off. Must have been big losses on that one.
