Gossip On Sports - Aintree Festival Day2 Picks

Gossip On Sports is today here to tell about Aintree festival day 2 picks. Well, we did alright yesterday with two of our picks landed. There is some great racing action today today and the feature race is the John Smith’s Melling Chase over 2m4f at 3.10pm (live on BBC2). We really fancy Nacarat here.


Trainer Tom George has, so far, had one of his best seasons to date and most of that is to do with this horse. He landed the Racing Post Chase at Kempton back in February in impressive fashion – beating a top-notch field and although this is another step up I think he’s certainly on the upgrade. He is so good on a flat track, which AIntree is.

In the 4.20pm race, we think Pause and Clause will run a big race. He was a fast-finishing third in the Coral Cup at the Cheltenham Festival last month, and despite not landing the prize he still ran a great race.

He was well supported that day and with the first three pulling clear of the fourth the form looks good. This will be the quickest ground he’s encountered so far, but I can’t see that being too much of a problem for him.
