Himalayan Trail Odds

Himalayan Trail seemingly came out of nowhere in 2008 to win two staying races easily, including a twenty two length win in the Midlands Grand National. For a ten year old he is very lightly raced and that means he has the strength and stamina of a Grand National winner but the low weight usually associated with a much younger, up and coming horse.

Himalayan Trail Odds - To Complete The Course

Himalayan Trail Odds - Top Irish Horse

Himalayan Trail is a difficult prospect to weigh up as he had been beaten by wide margins in five runs in a row before winning easily twice. This season his form would not get you excited but he has run in inadequate contests to get him ready for this race. He has potential to be Top Irish Horse and would be a decent bet if he is a big price.

The Best Grand National Bet on Himalayan Trail

Himalayan Trail could be anything as he must have had problems before his two wins easy wins last season and we have not really seen him in the right sort of contest this season to weigh up how good he is. If he is as good as ever then the best bet is a win only bet as he has run some very poor races in the past. He has never placed in a race he hasn't won so win only is the best type of bet.
