National

Post by pokercade »

Well my advance on the selections for the national would be to place your horses each way at least u might get the winner and a couple of places. I believe bet 365 and a few others are going 5 places so would place the bets there.
My E-w selection at the moment for the national will be KELAMI. V good horse and nice price at the moment.
Also dont pin your hopes on picking the winner be sensible and enjoy the race gl all.

I always pick 3 out, they are :-

Billyvoddan e/w
Point Barrow e/w
Hedgehunter e/w

Yeah, be sure to check all bookie's for the extra place's.I think other's such as Vic Chandler are offering "your money back" if your selection fall's.

I have bet...

£10 Hedgehunter Win
£10 McKelvey Win
£5 Point Barrow Win
£5 Joes Edge Win
£5 Billyvoddan Win
£5 Ballycassidy E/W

I only actually paid £20 to stake that £40 of bets.....made good use of free first bet macthing at Totes and Paddy Power. A minimum of £50 back if any of those win.....not a bad chance for a £20 outlay i reckon :)

Watch numbersixvalverde win it again now :P Was very tempted to bet on it, but back to back wins are rare as hens teeth!

Damn you Mckelvey! I was 1/2 a length from a £150 payout there! :x

I don't know anyone who backed the winner though. Shows its a complete mugs game trying to tip horses in the national.
