Walsh 5/6 to repeat Cheltenham feat at Aintree

Ruby Walsh is the 5/6 favourite with StanJames to be top jockey at this week’s Grand National Festival at Aintree, which starts this Thursday.

Despite a poor Cheltenham Festival, Walsh was still top jockey over the course of the week’s races, with three winners.

Tony McCoy, who is bidding for his first ever Grand National win on Saturday, is second favourite at 6/1.

StanJames Head of PR Charlie McCann told Bettingpro:

"Things didn't exactly go to plan for the Nicholls/Walsh combination at Cheltenham yet Ruby was still leading jockey with three winners.

"Big Buck's will be a very short price to get Team Nicholls off to a flier in Thursday's opener and the pair have a very strong hand in many of the other races including, of course, Big Fella Thanks in the National."
