Expert Grand National Predictions by Kevin Blake

The highly anticipated Grand National day has finally arrived, and Kevin Blake is here to share his expert predictions. Before the main event, he has identified two promising races with potential winners. The first is the William Hill Handicap Hurdle, where he recommends KAKA'S COUSIN, a relatively unexposed six-year-old with a promising track record. The step up in trip is expected to suit this contender, who will be carrying a light weight. Another competitive race is the William Hill Handicap Chase, where CRUZ CONTROL is poised to secure his third consecutive win. Having won the race in 2024 and 2025, he is well-positioned to repeat this success, especially given his team's current form. Finally, Kevin Blake turns his attention to the Randox Grand National, one of the world's most iconic sporting events. While much has changed over the years, the excitement remains, and he has carefully analyzed each runner to provide his top four selections for the big race.
