Horse Racing: McCoy chooses Colbert Station

AP McCoy has opted to ride Colbert Station rather than Sunnyhillboy in Saturday's Grand National but admits it was a tough decision to make.

Sunnyhillboy, who was the runner-up to Neptune Collonges last year, is 14/1 to go one better by winning at Aintree this time. McCoy said of his decision to choose Colbert Station, who is 10/1 to win the Grand National: "It really was one of the most difficult choices I have ever had to make but of course I realise how fortunate I am to be in this position. They are both absolutely great horses. "Sunnyhillboy is a known stayer - he'll get every yard of the trip and Colbert Station is very much an emerging horse. He's a good jumper and has been in great form this season."
