Seriously who is betting on what ?

[Goofyish]

We all pick a horse each at home and put a £1 each way bet on

Not sure who I'm going to pick this year - probably just close my eyes and use a pin to pick one LOL

[natalielongstaff]

[Laurafoster]

Forgot it was this weekend. I'll have a look and see what name i like!
Last year i picked a horse and said it was because it had long legs?! DH wasnt impressed but i thought it was a logical approach?!

 

[Chilly]

Oh I forgot as well! Will have a look and see who to pick.

I havent looked yet, but we always pick one horse each, I won about 3 years ago.(not very much though)

I've just been on the Grand National webiste http://www.equine-world.co.uk/aintree-grand-national-2008-runners.htm and I've seen a couple of names that are very 'me'

Another Rum &
Bailey Breeze (as in Bailey's and Breezers)

I think I'll put a fiver on each for fun

Cracking names Mandy...hope they do well

Like two - one for each DS. First one is Model Son for eldest DS Luke, as I always tell him he is a model child when he puts on his 'butter wouldn't melt' face! Second is Silver Jack for second DS as his name is Jack (!) and silver to me implies second ie born second.

Trouble is, these two probably wont make it to the final 40, so I will have to start from scratch!

Also like the name Mr Pointment - story of my life!!

Good luck to everyone who has a flutter. Hope the horses all get through the race OK.

Sara.

mckelvy and cloud nine

I have £2.00 each way on Vodka Bleu and the same for Baily breeze.

I never win anything so my advice would be to steer well clear of these two now

 

[natalielongstaff]

The kids have put a £1 on point barrow and snowy morning

 

[florida sun]

We had a sweep in work this morning, I have 2 horses, Snowy Morning and Mckelvey. Good luck everyone

 

[Chilly]

I've put two pound each way on Slim Pickings (because of Friends) and in the work sweepstake I got Hi Cloy.

 

[mikki.young]

I can't believe some of the names but I can't resist going for Comply or Die - do you think a Dalek owns it?

 

[mandymouse]

Well I've just got back from the bookies and I've gone for Slim Pickings (in honour of us dieters ), Simon (cos he owns the Florida Mall ) and Bailey Breeze (for all us Bailey's and Breezer drinkers )

Good Luck everyone

We've put a bet on Mckelvey and have decided if we win it is going towards the Disney fund.
