    Here are the runners ...

    I used to work for a flat trainer ... still I think the most successful flat trainer in the UK ... I won't mention his name ... it still gives me a nasty twitch ... :rolleyes: ... Anyhoo ... over the jumps ... over that distance ... you may as well stick a pin in any of the top 10 to 15 ... Pick a name you like ... and hope and pray as we all do that all the neddies come home safe this year ... Bless them

    Thank you LB. To be honest that's why i've not bet on the national for years. I don't really agree with it because of the danger of the course. I had my own pony for 18 yrs until he died in 1995 bless his soul, and I won 100s of rosettes but would never put him over a course that looked in the least bit dangerous. I too will be praying that they all come through it safely.

    I just thought a £100 free bet was a little too good to turn down! *blushes*

    Daily Express

    Caffe Uno voucher - Free kids meal wyb adult meal, valid until April 30 Pg60

    Blue Sq bet - bet at least £5 and Blue Sq will give you £5 free bet for todays racing (Register at www.bluesquare.com/redrum) Only on offer online.

    First post on newspaper thread, and I don't usually read the Express, so hope that helps. Martin has another thread about getting a free £25 bet for Saturdays Grand National via betfair (go thru' quidco) where there's lots of chatter on 'how to bet' for dummies like me! And if you google grand national theres a few sites on whats running plus tips. Good luck!
