Oh well.
Hey, Herc, it's jolly Easter.
That time of year when we celebrate travelling on a donkey to our own public hangings.
So why don't you cheer yourself up by doing what I am doing.
ie Go to a church Eunuchist service.

Is it too early for tips on this year's race (15th)? I'm not sure they have the first line up yet (before inevitable drop outs) but I'd like to get a punt in early for once before the odds plummet. I've heard a few names mentioned Delta Work, Longhouse Poet, are these the big favourites already?
Ta in advance.
My money's on the Vegans.

Nevertheless, if you insist, on your head be it... Current odds from various bookmakers are per the link below. Above the name of each bookmaker is a box that says "non-runner no bet" (ie you get your money back if it doesn't run). Probably best to bet with one of these if you're betting early. Just in case. From the Thursday afternoon before the race (when the final runners are declared) you will automatically get your money back on a non-runner with all bookmakers.
Below the bookmakers' name is the each way terms they're currently offering (ie 5 places or 4 places; one-fifth the odds for a place or a quarter). You will probably get better each way terms (maybe down to 8th place or even more) on the day.
No! I'm totally against this "race".

A disg race!
You'll both be there with your banners willing to be trampled to death then? Good good.
The rest of us and the economy will enjoy a classic national event the horses have been bred and trained for.
Still haven't had any tips from anyone here but I've bunged 20 each way on Ten Algar 66-1 via skybet, I can't access the better odds sites.

I've nothing against flat racing but some of those jumps are lethal.

No such horse I'm afraid. There's one called Escaria Ten if that helps?
