Grand National 2013 Weights

Grand Performance - Neptune Collonges just got the better of Sunnyhillboy in last year's Grand National

The weights for this year’s Grand National have been revealed today at the annual Grand National weights lunch.

As usual there has been the usual mix of delight, confusion and anger amongst connections and punters alike following the publishing of the race-specific weights each contender for this year’s renewal of the world’s greatest steeplechase will have to carry.

From a personal standpoint I’m delighted with last year’s fourth and my lone ante-post bet for this year’s race thus far Cappa Bleu being allotted 10st7 – 3lbs less than he carried to fourth in last year’s race.

That’s not a ‘nice racing weight’ cliché there, he genuinely looks well handicapped and I’m even more confident now that he can improve on last year’s staying on fourth this time around.

Others that look to have been fairly treated include Welsh National second Teaforthree on 10st13, the fancied Colbert Station on 10st11 and David Bridgwater’s Wyck Hill on just 10st4.
