2010 Grand National Tips from the Sun Alliance Chase

The key point here is that the Sun Alliance Chase puts a huge emphasis on stamina on a young horse and if they can cope with it at that stage of their career then they may well be able to cope with the extra demands of Aintree as they gain more experience.

Denman won the the 2007 Sun Alliance Chase from the 2008 Grand National placed Snowy Morning and hopefully we will see Paul Nicholls' great chaser in the 2011 Grand National

In the meantime it might be that Snowy Morning has enough experience to now go two places better than he did in the National of 2008
