Although we don't usually cover racing here in the UK, I have once again been asked to put together a preview for Saturday's Grand National at Liverpool, which is available at the below link: @talkSPORT2 @Lee__McKenzie @TonyMacRacing @itvracing

Good Luck to the ex German-trained pair LORD and ALEXEI, who both run on the first day of the prestigious Grand National meeting at Aintree today. Hopefully Lord can go well at a big price, whilst the step up in trip should help Alexei (dam was 2nd over 2900 metres in Germany).

Great to see the ex-Polish horse HIPOP DE LOIRE run at Cheltenham tomorrow. Been a big fan of the horse ever since his incredible 17 length victory in a Listed race at Warsaw back in 2020, video here: https://t.co/07HuCWZCji

@RacingPost @leemottershead @claimsfive @MRennieRP The 'Flieger' celebration also made the headlines in Germany back in 2012 when originally done by Italian jockey Mirco Demuro aboard Samba Brazil at Baden-Baden @BadenRacing (Photo copyright https://t.co/wny9BVEHMw / Sabine Brose):

@prauska @gavincromwell1 @donoghue_keith Yes, if Keith Donoghue doesn't get Ride of the Year for that, then something is wrong with the world! And the race video has been uploaded: https://t.co/mSQcAxntVY

VELKA PARDUBICKA - JOCKEY CHANGE

For those of you following the Velka Pardubicka, there is a jockey change as follows:

13. ARAUCARIAS will now be ridden by Marcel Novak Jr, as intended jockey Josef Bartos has been stood down following a fall in the previous race.

@prauska @IrishRacing7 @irishracing @Vincenzo0612 Thanks Michaela! I put the link on my website a few days ago, and it's working fine. Just trying to work out what's happened to Keith Donoghue as he's missed the ride on Greek Dessert, but my ten word knowledge of the Czech language isn't quite enough to work out what's happened!
