About Me
- DizzyJB
- I have been obsessed with the Grand National ever since Aldaniti was my first winner in 1981, aged nine. This annual preview has actually been going since 1992, long before blogs and social media, proudly boasting a strike rate of over 60% from the final shortlist until 2008 (although that's dropped to 50% in the last decade!). Enjoy reading this year's edition, but bet on my tips at your peril - they come with all of the necessary caveats and wealth warnings. If you do decide to have a flutter good luck!
