grand national withdrawals latest

[vikingflagship]

Patsy Hall, Over The Creek and Ungaro are arguably the most notable, along with Irish National runner-up Royal County Star and the Paul Nicholls-trained Royal Auclair.

Billyvoddan, Knight Legend, Always Waining, Homer Wells, Ursumman, Cool Running, Oscar India, Final Act, Juful Tennis, Patman Du Charmil and the ill-fated Alexander Taipan have also been taken out.

99 still declared 40 runners

and most of those in positions 41 – 99 are only in because they will get some of their money back if they end up being balloted out!!!

does anyone know where the current cut off point is?

I think Black Apalachi is in position 40 just now, with Philson Run in 41st; but of those guaranteed a run at present, Hi Cloy, No Full and Naunton Brook are regarded as doubtful starters.
