If you are under 18, I am not encouraging you to bet and/or g.amble, it is against the law for you.  Get someone else to do it for you….

Good Luck all for the big race...

Pah! The Mighty Cobblers have got more chance of staying up than my horse winning, but I'd take that.

80-1 shot might be worth a £1 or 2

A good each way between, especially when some of the bookies are offering six/seven places...

[Tabasco Kid]

I have passed the baton over to Mrs T to invest as much of her own money as she chooses on three card brag. 50/50 on any winnings though. I feel that this is only fair, as it is always my turn to pay for the takeaways, or fill the car up.

[TVOR]

Got the favourite so put my house on it on Deepcuts recommendation!

(also know as guaranteed to fall at the first fence!)

Mrs T must have been well behaved recently, she used to be referred to as the current Mrs T. Was she previously on a season long loan and now you have secured her on a Bosman?

Bosman?  No such thing as free with her!

Bosman?  No such thing as free with her!   

I am sure that she is worth every penny.

Let us know how you did at the Bookies...

[BackOfTheNet]

I have my one flutter of the year for the National, so I stick £50 in the kitty and everyone in the family picks a horse for an each way bet.

We managed to get 2nd and 6th, so netted out at £6.50 down. Oh well, no harm done!

I had three horses each at a fiver to win...finished 1st, 2nd and 4th! Not bad! Only got the winner at 20/1 half an hour before the race though....should have gone for SP.

Don't give him anything, Tabby says he is bound to spend it on drugs and his next holiday to Benidorm.

Is that a bad thing?

Is that a bad thing?

Not at all, I think we should all take life's small pleasures when we can. You never know what lies around the corner.
