Grand National Day

The Grand National is a complete lottery, everything from favourites to 100/1 shots have won it. Even so, it is a Sporting Event which cannot be ignored. Here are my bets and lays for today. Let's see how I do.

Placepot

1: 1,8,9
2: 3
3: 1,2
4: 4,7,12
5: 11,14,19,34
6: 4,8

10p lines equals a £14.40 stake.

Lays (all laid to a £100 liability on Betfair at SP):

1: 2,3,5,6.
2: 1,2,4
3: 3,4
4: 1,2,3,5,6,8,11,14
5: 1,2,3,4,5,7,8,9,10,12,13,15,17,21,22,23,24,25,27,28,29,30,31,33,35,37,38,39,40

I think the winner of the Grand National will come from:

Alfa Beat
Chicago Grey
Shakalakkaboomboom
According to Pete
Always Right
Cappa Bleu
Rare Bob
Sunnyhillboy
Swing Bill
Giles Cross
Vic Venturi

My 4 favoured are the ones highlighted in the Placepot selection. The Grand National is Race 5 of the card.

Good Luck.

  2. Another 2 laid, making 9 succesful lays so far. Still in the tote - not hard though as the first 3 races have been won by the favourites.

  3. I'm going to pay out on Saint Are in the fourth race. Still alive in the Placepot though.

  4. What a race! I'm paying out again though!

  5. I'm still in the Placepot with Cappa Bleu squeezing in fourth in the National. Two horses in the last race of the tote. It's a complete dodgepot though so all down to luck.
