You know what folks?

I'm feeling pretty smug having checked the proffessional tipsters predictions because I did better than them. ( Again )

Not only did I give you the winner In my final 5 shortlist but the one's I predicted would stay on their feet and finish did what I said.

Considering that only 15 of the 40 runners completed and finished the course:

My final 5:

Neptune Collognes......... winner

Shakalakaboomboom..........9 th

The Midnight Club............. 11th

Ballabrigs......................... 6th

Chicago Grey.................. Brought Down

Well done Oscar ( gives herself pat on the back )

2012 John Smiths Grand National Chase - Neptune Collonges - YouTube

The race In full.

An amendment to some of my previous posts that were written just after I had come out of hospital and still under the effects of Pethadine.... That'll teach me.

J.P. McManus Is not the trainer of Synchronised but the owner.... I don't know what I was thinking when I wrote that.

Synchronised trainer Is Jonjo O'Neill....and Ironically he was the jockey on Alverton who I posted earlier re: 1979......... You'd think that would have stayed with him
