Grand national
« on: 04 April 2013, 14:12:46 »
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

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
