2019 Grand National

[Eggs]

Just wondering if anyone could help clear something up, me and a few mates where talking about it today?

Which is the tougher race , cheltnem or aintree for tiger roll

....Tiger Roll won easily at Cheltenham but the 4 mile Cross-Country course can be gruelling over those banks and fences. Both races are tests of stamina, something which the great Tiger Roll has in abundance. He’s bred to run and he’s clearly thriving on his racing.

Tiger Roll is a magnificent athlete, just like Olympians who run 3 or 4 races at an athletics meeting.

100% Aintree is and always will be the ultimate test for national hunt jumping, they've toned it down and made if safer in recent years but it's still head and shoulders THE test for horses over the jumps.

I backed Valtor as, apparently, it has never fallen in 30 odd races. It didn't fall on Saturday - but finished 18th. My other horse, which I drew in a Sweepstake, fell at the first fence. Good job I only have one bet a year.

The national is full of mugs that wouldn't do anything at Cheltenham, which is as you know the pinnacle of national hunt racing across 4 days, not just one race.

You have just been eager to jump on me to try get one up for the first time in history, and have been found wanting, again.

Next time just do a bit of googling before you decide to jump in both feet.
