Hi everyone,

Further to my post on the Grand National Ante Post thread I would be grateful if you all would start adding your Grand National Tips for 2009 to this thread now instead.

The other thread is just becoming too big! When it reaches that size it become difficult to manage and could be offputting for new readers so seeing as we have just had the issue of the weights, it seems a good time to start a fresh thread.

If all our regular contributors would be so kind as to give an overview of their current selections and the reasoning behind why they have made those selections that would be ideal. Also, a few general tips for the novice Grand National punter would also be very useful.

Thanks again for all your great input.
