My Record

Here's a summary of my record since I started this blog back in 2006.

6/19 Winners (32% strike rate)

- Numbersixvalverde (2006)

- Comply Or Die (2008)

- Ballabriggs (2011)

- Tiger Roll (2018)

- I Am Maximus (2024)

- Nick Rockett (2025)

24/85 tipped horses finishing 1-2-3-4-5

This has given me an each-way return rate of 28% from 2006-2025.

Last 3 Shortlists

Perhaps of more relevance than the tipping record would be the shortlist of horses who tick all the trends associated with a modern Grand National winner. As mentioned in my last blog this has been very predictive over the last three renewals:

- 2023: 9 horses shortlisted, including 1-2-3-4 

- 2024: 8 horses shortlisted, including winner

- 2025: 5 horses shortlisted including winner
