Who has a flutter on the national? What are you going for? I usually have a small bet on 3or 4, this year I'm going for....teaforthree, rare bob, sea bass and one other big odds outsider.
£3or £4 on each, all each way. It's the only horse race I ever bother with, love it. :y

We always have a bet but for pennies , family come round and we all break out the 2p and 5ps and have a bet :) Im going for Sea Bass :y

I remember getting married on Grand National day....everybody at the reception had it on radio's...I was virtually the only one who did not have a bet.
The winner........Highland Wedding !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What an omen :(

I always have a flutter on the National......i havent decided on the horses yet.....but heres a tip for you......do a search for the online bookies offering free bets.....not free obviously.....but the ones that say bet £10 get a £10 bet free.....yesterday i loaded a few quid into an online bookie to take advantage of this......they usually withdraw these offers on national day ;)

if there are 40 horses or so in the race surly it's worth putting a quid on each one?
your bound to get something back even if its a loss

ummm......thats like saying wining the national lottery is summat like 13.5 million to one......so spend 13.5 million quid to cover every permutation to win maybe 2/3/4/5/6 million ;D ;D

My missus has a dog at school called Oscar. If the kids are good, they get Oscar time. Bet the bookie local to the school was shitting himself two out. ;D

I see the winning jockey came down to earth with a bump (literally) today. Airlifted to hospital after falling of his horse at a smallish meeting this afternoon.

I let the children pick a horse each ever year, it usually comprises of which one is the nicest colour
My 6 year old daughter picked Aurora encor so had 2 quid each way and my 1 year old with his chocolate stained fingers picked Oscar time another 2 quid each way.. Went to the bookies today to collect and was shocked it was 205 quid !
A valuable lesson learned for next year, let the kids pick :y

2x66 = 132 then 50p x 66 = 33 (for the 25% of the place as it was each way) 165 + the stake 169
Then as oscar again was each way 50p x 66 = 33 + the stake 37
169 + 37 = 206 (not 205 as previously stated)
