Grand National: Our tipster Bob Cross gives his first five for Aintree

The Grand National takes place on Saturday at Aintree (5.15).

It’s one of the biggest races of the year, and most of us enjoy a wee each way flutter.

The handicapper has been particularly mean this year, and nothing stands out as being ahead of its mark.

Only three of them are officially rated higher than his assessment, one of which is Snow Leopardess.

It would be an incredible story if she won. After injuring herself in France in 2017, she took time out to give birth.

Since returning, she has been outstanding, culminating in her winning the Becher Chase here in December.

My first five selections are: Snow Leopardess, Farclas, Death Duty, Burrows Saint, Enjoy D’Allen.
