Bluebird Hewitt Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 5 minutes ago, JOSHBRFC said: I said Tiger Roll last year and it's really hard not to fancy it this year, it's just its a massive favourite which I don't like, especially at the National. I was tempted but you don't tend to see last year's winner win it the following year as well. Watch this backfire on me now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluebird Hewitt Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Unfortunately, it is being reported that Up for Review died after falling at the first fence. It did look a nasty fall and a shame to hear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted April 10, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted April 10, 2021 Grand National today and I had to do it online as the bookies not open, once a year flutter for me and the wife on the Nationals (including the Scottish & Welsh) plus the Derby when it's run, just hope it all goes well and no horses get injured. £14 max me and the wife put on, my selection (£1 each way) Any Second Now - 5/1 Majic Light - 14/1 Definitely Red - 40/1 Potters Corner - 22/1 The Long Mile - 50/1 The wife picked (£1 win only) Mister Malarky - 20/1 Chris's Dream - 50/1 Cloth Cap - 11/2 Taking Risks - 14/1 Normally the wife bloody wins, she goes by the jocky's who are riding and one of her favourite jockeys is Jonjo O'Neill and he is on Cloth Cap, 11/2 fav when we placed the bets, our son being an ex bookies manager at Corals went for Burrows Saint - 8/1 (£2 win only) Lakeview Lad - 50/1 (£1 e/w) Bally Optic - 80/1 (£1 e/w) He only had £5 in his Sky Bet account left a couple of weeks ago so he just whacked that on some horses and forgot about it, he checked his account later and found he had won £125, so a few wine & lagers went down well that day after Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
