| Denman 0
2008 Gold Cup Winner has been mentioned as a National possible. What a prospect! |
20-1
| Butlers Cabin 0
Looked to be going well when fell at Bechers in 2008. Stable due a change of luck in this race. |
20-1
| Comply Or Die 0
Jumped brilliantly to land the National in 2008. Can he become the first horse to retain his crown since Red Rum? |
22-1
| King Johns Castle 0
Gallant runner-up in 2008. Will be aimed at the race again in 2009. |
22-1
| Snowy Morning 0
Cracking effort to finish third in 2008. Will be trained specifically for this race in 2009. |
25-1
| Gwanako 0
Put up a terrific performance to win the 2008 Topham as a five year old. Bags of potential but a big ask to win the National at six years old. |
25-1
| Hear The Echo 0
2008 Irish Grand National winner will be looking to uphold the good record of winners of that race at Aintree. |
25-1
| Himalayan Trail 0
Improving young stayer. Won the Midland Grand National in 2008 so has the required stamina for Aintree. |
25-1
| Iris De Balme 0
Shock winner of the 2008 Scottish National will be looking to confirm that his victory at Ayr was no fluke by running well at Aintree. |
25-1
| Miko De Beauchene 0
Gutsy winner of the Welsh National in 2008. Could be the type of fairystory winner that the Grand National is famous for. |
33-1
| An Accordion 0
Improving young chaser who won two big races at the end of 2008 season including at the Cheltenham Festival. If improvement continues can be a strong player in 2009 National. |
33-1
| Character Building 0
Was well fancied for 2008 National but an injury kept him out of the race. Likely to be prepared for the 2009 race. |
33-1
| Cloudy Lane 0
Disappointed in 2008 National and hard to imagine he will fare any better with more weight in 2009. |
33-1
| Garde Champetre 0
Cross Country specialist who could be diverted to the Grand National. Would be very interesting if given the go ahead. |
33-1
| Halcon Genelardais 0
Didn't manage to win in 2007/8 but put up some top class weight carrying performances. One of the best staying chasers in training. |
33-1
| Old Benny 0
Won the National Hunt Chase at the Cheltenham Festival but looks as if he could do with a few more miles on the clock before tackling Aintree. |
33-1
| Royal County Star 0
Runner up in Irish Grand National. Comes from powerful stable of Tony Martin |
33-1
| Simon 0
Failed to get round for the second year in succession and it may just be that his best chance has gone. |
33-1
| Slim Pickings 0
Third in 2007 and fourth in 2008. Sadly it looks like his stamina just doesn't see him home. |
40-1
| Bothar Na 0
Has put in some decent performances over the National fences but might need to go up the weights somewhat to be sure of making it into the handicap. |
40-1
| Gungadu 0
2008 Racing Post Chase winner has same connections as Denman and may be given his chance if that horse does not take part. |
40-1
| Irish Raptor 0
Runner-up to Gwanako in the Topham and will be suited to the extra distance of the National if making the weights. |
40-1
| Patsy Hall 0
Disappointing in 07/08 but dangerous to underestimate a Tony Martin horse. Could easily come back to form. |
40-1
| Turko 0
Fell in 2008 National when well fancied by his powerful stable. Likely to return in 2009. |
50-1
| Chelsea Harbour 0
Won a National trial at Punchestown in 2008 and completed in his own time in the great race itself. Likely to try again in 2009. |
50-1
| LAmi 0
On a very long losing run and has disappointed twice in the National already. |
50-1
| Mon Mome 0
Decent stayer who didn't really look at his best in 07/08 and may improve again with the benefit of antother years experience. |
50-1
| Mr Pointment 0
Brilliant display over the National fences in 2007 Becher but question marks about his fitness. |
50-1
| Parsons Legacy 0
Well fancied for the 2008 race but didn't make the day due to injury. Likely to be well faincied for 2009 if coming back fit and well. |
