Betway Bowl Steeple Chase Aintree Racecourse

Nigel Twiston-Davies, Grand National Thursday at Aintree Racecourse. Today with Bristol De Mai contesting the 2.50 at Aintree, The Betfair Bowl, 3m 1f over the Aintree mildmay course.

Looking to follow up on his excellent 3rd in the Cheltenham Gold Cup, he meets three rivals who were behind him that day plus two others who ran in the Ryanair Chase the day before.

This obviously looks like being an excellent race, but he looks in great order and can confirm the Cheltenham form and go one better than his second to Might Bite in this last year.

Another big run expected, Daryl Jacob in the saddle.
