Aintree tips: five horses to back on day two of the Grand National meeting

Friday's best bets ranked in order of confidence by our top tipsters

Ace tipster

Caribean Boy(4.05 Aintree)

Lost all chance at a standing start at Cheltenham last time but rocketed through the field late to take seventh. If he can get off to a flyer this time he could prove hard to catch.
Graeme Rodway

Eyecatcher

Houx Gris (2.20 Aintree)

Travelled like the best horse in Fred Winter and takes on some relatively ordinary older hurdlers here.
Mark Brown

Speed figures

Tomorrow Mystery (5.15 Aintree)

Suited by a strong pace, she has been successful in four of her last five starts and may not have finished winning yet.
Dave Edwards

Dark horse

Caribean Boy(4.05 Aintree)

Faces an easier task today than last time out when carrying top weight and potentially well handicapped with only the six runs to his name since arriving from France.
Sam Hardy

Handicappers' nap

Monte Cristo (1.45 Aintree)

Much improved when scoring easily at Kempton on Boxing Day and ran better than his finishing position would suggest in the Coral Cup at Cheltenham.
