Tony McFadden picks three Grand National chances for Aintree's challenging conditions due to the weather.
I Am Maximus
Aintree's Grand National course may be easier than it used to be, but there are still 30 fences to cross, giving I Am Maximus, a poor jumper, several chances to lose distance.
I Am Maximus may struggle with jumping, but his stamina was impressive when he won the Irish Grand National last season.
Mr. Incredible
Like I Am Maximus, Mr Incredible, trained by Willie Mullins, failed to finish the Grand National last season. His rider's saddle may have slipped before he was unshipped at the Canal Turn on the second circle.
Mr Incredible is 5 lb heavier this time, but the stricter ground should suit him better. He won a Naas maiden hurdle, finished second in Warwick's Classic Chase last season, and finished second in the Midlands National on his belated reappearance the previous month. Timeform considers him heavy.
Malina Girl
His daughter Malina Girl won the Ulster National last season in her maiden marathon on tough conditions. Malina is an inspiration for stamina.
She raced poorly on a better track and was pulled up in the Scottish National a few weeks later. Still, she won a contested handicap at Cheltenham's November meeting, proving her staying chaser prowess on challenging ground.
