WEEKEND BETTING GUIDE | SCOTTISH GRAND NATIONAL & NEWBURY PREVIEW

Emmet Kennedy, Andy Newton, George Gorman and Jaime Wrenn are back with the Weekend Betting Guide, looking to continue a strong run of form with a full preview of the best action from Ayr and Newbury.

This weekend delivers the best of both worlds, with the Scottish Grand National taking centre stage for jumps fans, while flat racing fans are treated to a fascinating clash at Newbury.
