Re: Horse Racing
Nicholls out to repeat the feat.

Quote:
Paul Nicholls broke his John Smith's Grand National duck with Neptune Collonges last year and this time saddles Join Together, What A Friend and Harry The Viking.
What A Friend and Harry The Viking are part-owned by Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson.
Nicholls said: "It's very hard (to follow last year), it was an amazing day, but we've got three nice horses to run. What A Friend has very much the same profile as Neptune Collonges. He's been placed in Graded races and run very well, but has been out of form, so we need to bounce back. He will like the ground."
