Grand National
Anyone got any tips they would like to share?
Think I'm gonna have to have a punt on last years winner and Weird Al at the very least. Can't resist a little flutter on the national. Anyone Else? |

Re: Grand National
I'm in the family sweepstake, meaning I owe my Grandmother 50p.
My horses will be picked from a hat, as good a method as any

Re: Grand National
We have a sweepstake at work and I got TATENEN 100-1 apparently, lady in the office into horses says she thinks he has a chance because he's been running very strongly recently. Dunno how true that is.

Re: Grand National
Free £5 sky bet when you bet £5 + the £10 introductory free skybet money & my drunk'n small time winnings on roulette = betting on almost every horse!
Weird Al and Shakalakkaboomboom got the most investment for obvious reasons

Re: Grand National
Shakalakaboomboom & Synchronised, £1 e/w on both.
Mrs w has gone for Seabass & Viking Blond using the scientific method of, "oh they're nice coloured shirts the jockey's will be wearing." And she's in profit using this method...

Re: Grand National
bri that sound like my method(which has been proven right on many occashions throughout my years of horseriding)that is go only for horses with one or two word names if they have a multiple word name keep away.
whan i used to compet the two horses i had which i had most sucess on was 2 word names, the other which were longer did ok but never shone to the point of winning the big pries. therefor i like organised chaos and last years winner. |
