    Who's everyone on tomorrow then?

    Don't usually like revealing my choices before the race as I'm superstitious about it but what the *. I'm on The Last Samuri, Gallant Oscar and Morning Assembly, all E/W.

    Not touching it. I have gone off it in recent years, and being honest, as a gambler, it is a nightmare to bet on.

    Good luck with your picks.

    D'you think so?

    I've always found it a good race to bet on. Had a few winners through the years and always have one or two that are there or thereabouts. I've lost a lot of money by just betting on the nose in the past so giving the E/W a go this year. This'll probably be the year all my choices fall :smiley-laughing002::31:

    For anyone interested in only doing one small bet, I found this pretty decent offer from online bookies RACEBETS.

    They are offering 100/1 on any horse in the grand national for new customers, the downside is that you can only bet £1 (EW), still a pretty decent offer though.

    Just had a wee look at the terms etc.


    The extra enhanced winnings will be paid out as bonus cash. You must wager this bonus cash 3 times prior to withdrawal. You have 30 days to complete the wagering requirement. Failure to do so will result in forfeiting the bonus cash and any winnings associated with the bonus cash.
