Morning

Well DM DS has chosen his horses, they are as follows
Major Malarkey - jockey's hat looks like a hazard sign (as good a reason as any)
Weird Al - no reason for this one

Mine are
Big Fella Thanks - for DH
Colbert Station - similar name to my baby cousin
Imperial Commander - sounds very Star Warsy so reminded me of DH and DSes shared love

I won't win but half the fun is in the shouting at your chosen horse to run faster like they can hear you :rotfl:

Oh, if there's any number left on the sweep I'll take it

SD I've picked Weird Al too for my free £5 Daily Mail bet.

Good afternoon all, looking in to watch the Grand National. Thanks davemorton for organising the sweepstake, great idea.

I see peeps have been reminiscing about placing bets on the GN. Booking wasn't a standard thing in our house, but as kids we were allowed to place a small bet on the horse of our choice, to teach us the evils of betting.

That went well.

My brother backed Red Rum each way three years on the trot! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
