Just to add on to comments about Nicky Henderson. I dont think he has been the same trainer since the day he lost Simonsig. I think thats when his nerve, bottle (call it what you will) went or at least started its downhill trend to over cautiousness.
I dont mind Willie Mullins cleaning up everywhere but certainly do agree the Brits need to up their game. We definitely need to be sending more horses over to run in Ireland. We cant beat him if we dont run against him at every available opportunity.
I see her in a genial, loveable scouser role tapping into the unbridled enthusiasm that Liverpool (and only Liverpool obviously) has for the Grand National.
In much the same way that the BBC employed John Parrott but hopefully not inducing viewers to kick their tv sets in and with less bizarre eyebrows.Or something like that anyway…
