Anyone heard any good horses?

So far - You'll Never walk alone and Amberleigh House have been whispered in my ear.

You'll Never walk alone sounds like a stable bet.

Remind me at 12.30 tonight, should have some good tips.
Its the most unpredictable race in the year, so I wont be betting on it.

Well the works sweepstake came my way and for some reason they are only giving everyone a number instead of a name, so any idea how to find out which 3 legged pit pony I've drawn? Horse No:5 by the way

If they don't adjust the numbering to reflect the withdrawal of Kingsmark, you're on Fadalko (currently about 66-1). Thought unlikely to stay the trip. If they do change the numbers, it'll be Chives (about 10-1). Good luck!
I drew Monty's Pass, which is a bit better than the 150-1 shot I normally end up with. For betting purposes I like Ad Hoc and Killusty, but will probably change my mind about 3 times before the race....

1) Mugs game
2) Soon to be glue
3) no, no, no, no, no, no, no
4) Ten quid down the toilet
5) I'd rather buy shares in Logica
6) Don't do it Steve
7) Pedigree Chum

horse number 5 is fadalko at 100/1 (unlikly to win- but a 100/1 did win a few years back)

Why why why do companies insist on doing sweepstakes on the Grand National, I mean I like horses but I could'nt eat a whole one.

And if my soon to be glue nag is 100/1 my £1 would have been better spent in the Bookies
and if I win I'll only get 'like you need the money driving a TV bloody R' anyway

Wouldn't it be nice for a change if the British Grand Prix could be held at Aintree again?
