    Still does not help choosing one lol.

    Is there anywhere to get "tips" or whatever you call it to chose a horse?

    Every single regional/national paper on Friday and Saturday will have tips!

    Although its not as much fun as picking out yourself - go for anything that catches your eye - name, colours, jockey. Stick pins in the list in the paper. Don't worry about the price, its a bet to nothing and sometimes the big outsiders come in!

    Hi there, thanks for all your advise and patience with us 'newbie' gamblers.:T
    So just to get this straight in my head........ i can join now and deposit my 25 quid then place my bets on saturday? if horses pull out get my bet back?

    Thats it! I've not read the T+Cs of the offer, but I'd be surprised if there was anything stipulating that you must place your bet before a certain time to qualify

    Ha ha ha ha ha This thread is so funny !! :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Most of you lot are like lambs the slaughter.
    Did you not think, just for one moment, why a bookie is "giving away" money ?

    Gambling is for the mathematically challenged.
    Not everything that's cheap is a bargain

    thanks for the tips guys, i think that i am going to wait until tomorrow night/saturday morning to place my bets and deposit my money!
    Can I ask though, I have a visa debit card
    (but its on an under 19s account) and when i have registered for bingo sites before ive had to put it as an electron card, does this mean i would be best not using this card (my other choice is a Maestro) to avoid a risk of the age verification thing people have been mentioning?
    Thanks :)
