Grand National day is here!

...and there were already a couple of messages from family members on my phone this morning... asking for my big race selections... sure to be more messages pinging up as the day goes on as well...

Maybe I should just reply with... 'Listen to the PodBlast like everyone else!'...

Yet to have my standard National day message from my mum though... 'can you put £2 E/W on number 6 for me and £2 E/W on number 10' (genuine message I have received every National day since I left home!!!)... there will likely be a couple other 'names' she likes as well... might just be £1 E/W on those ones though... usually around 12pm I can expect that message...

I shouldn't moan though... at least it shows that the wider population still have some level of interest in the world us lot immerse ourselves in every day... 

Not just Aintree going on today of course... and I've a couple of Saturday Angle qualifiers at the other meetings taking place... to help with your own betting/analysis...

But before I get onto them, here's links to a couple of things you may have missed...

• The Latest PodBlast Episode (Aintree National day)
• 17-pages of in-depth Cheltenham Festival notes
• FREE 7-day trial to HorseRaceBase (for NTF readers)

Now for the Saturday Trainer Angles...
