Hold your bets on Character and Royal
February 3rd, 2008The entries for the Grand National have seen many trainers come out in positive terms with regards to their Aintree ambitions but a couple of the well fancied runners could be giving the big race a swerve.
Character Building, trained by John Quinn, is as short as 20/1 with some bookmakers but is more likely to head for Fairyhouse and the Irish National according to his trainer. The Aintree race is still a consideration but he may wait another year.
Also probably heading for the Irish National rather than Aintree is Royal County Star, a 25/1 shot with most bookmakers. Tony Martin reported this week that his horse has just come back after a break but would more than likely not run at Aintree.
