Here's a look at a few more horses running in Saturday's Grand National:
Comply or Die- 'twas confirmed today that Timmy Murphy will be riding this 11-year-old, who fared well at Cheltenham recently, and won this race back in 2008. Recent form Cheltenham aside has been patchy, but is sure to be a factor in the race- William Hill's 22/1 is worth considering, especially as that price has shortened from 28/1 following the confirmation that Murphy will be in the saddle
Mon Mome- last year's 100/1 winner is much shorter 12/1 with totesport this time round, and that's not without good reason, as his recent form has been very impressive, including a 3rd place in the Cheltenham Gold Cup. Following last year's win, he knows his way around the Aintree course, and should go well, although it's a long, long time since a horse won this race 2 years running
Tricky Trickster- a sprightly young thing is this one at 7 years old. Aside from a poor performance in the Cheltenham Gold Cup, recent form has been good. Inexperience may count against him on such a tough, long course (his stamina at this distance has never been tested), but a potential contender- sportingbet will give you 18/1 on him
Chief Dan George- looks set to run on Saturday. This 10-year-old is carrying less weight than any of the other leading contenders, and has excellent recent form being ridden by Paddy Aspell. Has a real chance of winning, and therefore Ladbrokes' 33/1 looks a standout bet
