Horse Racing : Aintree (Grand National) : 12-14 April 2012

[#Chri5#]

So pinstickers, who is betting on what between now and Saturday afternoon?

I see Big Bucks is 2/11 in the 2:00 today - hardly worth betting on him, though I've gone with him as my first pick of a Yankee.

 

[Sleeve]

Giles Cross or Seabass for the national

Today i have:

230 - Countryide Flame
305 - Burton Port
340 - My Way De Solzen
415 - Kumbeshwar
450 - Al ferof
525 - Gullinburst

 

[Evolve]

Shakalakaboomboom is a decent each way shout for the National.

 

[Sui]

Tempted to have Synchronised after winning for me in the Gold Cup in the hope that it can do the double, would be a good story but I doubt it's going to happen so might avoid it. Not sure who I'm betting on yet, but there's a horse in there I just love the name of;

Organisedconfusion.

However, the jockey is going to be wearing teal, with yellow and teal stripes on his sleeves, that puts me off.

I have put £4.50 each way on synchronised and £1 each way on shakalakaboom.

I havent won on the grand national yet

When there's over 40 racing anything could happen

 

[Randell Floyd]

Since I never play the lottery, I gave in to the PaddyPower spend £20 get £20 free offer.

Cappa Bleu @ 14/1 - £20 as you could only bet the free one as a lump sum.

Killyglen @ 14/1 - £5 Insurebet 3 Places

Cappa Bleu @ 11/1 - £5 Insurebet 3 Places

Chicago Grey @ 11/1 - £5 Insurebet 3 Places

West End Rocker @ 11/1 - £5 Insurebet 3 Places

The Mrs has £5 on Deep Purple @ 80/1.

 

[Moza]

£5 on each of these to win for me:
Accoring To Pete
On His Own
Ballabriggs

 

[No1newts]

Took a rfc on synchronised and becaiseicouldntsee.

Stop the free £1 bet on synchronised at 12/1 as well which is a good price for him. Expecting Balabriggs to run well today as well.

 

[Sh3rlock]

how does the £20 free with Paddy Power work?

 

[lemonkettaz]

I think I have everything on today...

At least one has to come off

 

[Disco Boy]

Mum's on seabass
I'm on On His Own
The gf is on Shakalakaboomboom.

 

[Randell Floyd]

how does the £20 free with Paddy Power work?

Join, add £20 of funds, you then get £20 'free', but I couldn't use the £20 over four or five bets it had to be just once horse.

 

[Robzere31]

Ballabriggs & West End Rocker. Also a cheeky £1 EW on Mo Mone & Weird Al

 

[Sh3rlock]

Join, add £20 of funds, you then get £20 'free', but I couldn't use the £20 over four or five bets it had to be just once horse.

Have added £20 but my balance hasnt adjusted to £40.

Do I have to place the £20 bet first and then an extra £20 will pop up?

 

[RossG]

£2.50 E/W on Shakalakaboom boom at 14/1 and £2.50 E/W on OrganisedConfusion at 20/1. Here's hoping. I've made money every time I've bet on the national, hope this year isn't an exception
