Grand National 2013
It's that time of year again when all the women think they know it all about racing, and put there 50p EW bet on for it to win and then rub your nose in it for the rest of the year.
I shall be running a sweepstake, just for fun. Anybody who wants to be entered please post on here. The first 40 shall get a horse.
It"s tradition that you should always back your sweepstake horse so if you know nothing about picking a horse let me do it for you.
I will make the draw on Friday and post it on the same day

2010 Don"t Push It 10/1 ForthThistle

A vested interest in any horses Glenn?
I"m on Sunnyhillboy I know he"s got more weight than last year but each way first 6 with BetVictor was too good to turn down. Also a few quid each way on Bigfella Thanks purely because of his name and the fact i always back him!
BigFella Thanks was the name of a very succesful greyhound owned by the legendary gambler Harry Findlay in the early 2000"s. He won so much on it that he bought the horse and named it after the dog. I think he subsequently hit a bad patch as he no longer owns the horse. I dont think he quite stays the trip but at 40/1 each way is 10/1 and he has jumped around Aintree a few times so who knows.
Love the National. Few beers at lunchtime then settle down in front the TV.
-
Any left?
-
Put technolog down for one too, if there"s anything left. Cheers!
-
Woohoo! At least everyone can avoid my four legged friend unless they have a Tardis or a DeLorean as it won in 2011! Mind you the trainers dad won it more than once with Red Rum so who knows.....
I"ve also put a small each way bet on Seabass, come on Katie Walsh!
-
Cheers Wayne, haven"t even looked at which horse is Number 29 but putting £2 E/W on it regardless :D
