Horse Racing

Yeah, it was great.

A great festival for people who don’t just lump on the favourites every race.

I had some brilliant results over the four days.

£300 up and that’s from betting pretty small stakes.
 
…..for anybody with a Ladbrokes account, the 16-1 (18-1 boosted) for King of Answers to win Scottish Grand National is worth a little interest. You lose your money if he doesn’t line-up but one of the owners says the race is the plan and 16-1 is worth a couple of quid. I can see him going off favourite.

Regardless, one to back nearer the day and certainly one for next years Aintree Grand National notebook.
 
…..for those that have backed Johnnywho antepost for the Grand National, he still needed one to come out to sneak in at the bottom of the weights and I’m being told that’s happened this morning so he’s in. I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s favourite by next Saturday.

Anything for the Irish national today?

….just saying elsewhere, I don’t remember ever backing the winner of this race. Back in my footy days, I’d often end up in IOM on Easter Monday and vivid memories of watching it for years.

I’m definitely not the one to take notice of, but I’ve had a little e/w interest on Goraibmathagat 18-1 and Weveallbeencaught 44-1.
 
….for anybody going to Aintree tomorrow, I’ve been told the stable are ‘bullish’ about Winston Junior in the first. He’s only about 5-1 and the prices indicate it’s arguably the most competitive race on the card but they clearly like him.

Only juveniles so not one to get heavily involved in but thought I’d pass it on for anybody going.
 
Ive just taken 50/1 for Snipe in the foxhunters, 3/30.

Top trainer, will like the ground, won last time out and has won on the course. There's worse 50/1 shots I suppose.

Also took 66/1 in the same race for Fan De Blues, obviously for the name but not without a squeak I think.
