Suggested Bets (with current Betfair win odds):
1 point win and 1 point place BROOKLYN BROWNIE [42.0]
1 point win and 1 point place STATE OF PLAY [16.0]
1 point win and 1 point place CLOUDY LANE [75.0]

Staking Plan Records (on £1 per point basis):
Yesterday: -7.00
This week: -7.13
All time: +56.80

VERDICT:
We've gradually whittled the Grand National field down to four in the XY Factor Grand National World Cup and at the generous prices on Betfair (currently an amazing 102.2% book given the 40 runner field) we can afford to cover all four. BROOKLYN BROWNIE narrowly gets the nod, he gets in with a fighting weight and showed a liking for these fences last November. We'll cover with the potentially well handicapped STATE OF PLAY, last year's sixth CLOUDY LANE and PARSONS LEGACY who has been given a break since disappointing at Cheltenham.
