Anyone betting on the Grand National?

Who's your choice? these are me:

Comply Or Die @ 14/1
Offshore Account @ 25/1
Battlecry @ 40/1
Cerium @ 500/1
Zabenz @ 100/1
Big Fella Thanks @ 20/1 (Each-way, 1/4 odds, first 4)

Unlikely to win jack shit but. Fingers crossed.

Loyal BSGers should surely be on Big Fella Thanks (20/1).

I can't watch the Grand National without worrying about horses falling and breaking their legs or necks at The Chair or Beechers Brook. Curiously, I feel no concern for the jockeys.

If they loose both jockey and horse should be served to it's backers as lunch.

Quite understandable. The jockeys are mostly Irish, and go into it willingly.

My four against the field are

Brooklyn Brownie (28/1)
Big Fella Thanks (20/1)
Darkness (16/1)
Rambling Minster (9/1)

At very long odds, you could do worse than Preists Leap (100/1), if only because the spelling will annoy Aaron.

Ahh I see you picked horses that are likely to win. That's were I made my mistake ;)

I've put a few bets on.

My only worry is if I win, I might become addicted to gambling, end up playing poker and become known as "The Gold Mine".

Come on Cerium, I need the cash :D

100-1 winner! Some people will have majorly cashed in on that.

FFS. Stupid horses.
