Grand National 2012

Is anyone having a flutter on the gee gees today ? Or do you have a sweepstake at work ?

Tell us who you are betting on this year

I'm off down to the bookies later and will choose my horse in my usual fashion i.e. cute name, lucky number or favourite jockey colours

Good luck everyone

We bet on 2 long shots (always worth a punt, have won quite a lot in the last 10 years on long shots!), Calgary Bay and AlwaysRight.

I picked Shakalakaboomboom in the sweeps at work - no chance a horse with that name is going to win!

Who are you betting on Mandy?

I've put small bets on Cappa Bleu, Alfa Beat, Mon Mome and State of Play, with most of them at 66/1 I hope one of my long shots win too

Hubby has gone for one of the favourites Synchronised and Organisedconfusion too

Enjoy the race everyone

I've went for Cappa Bleu, Killyglen and Shakalakaboomboom! I just pick the names I like

Last year I picked my 2 but for some stupid reason when I got to the bookies changed my mind on one of them. Well that one was the one that went onto win! Was gutted! Did get the 2nd horse last year so fingers crossed!

I think it's cruel, too many horses die there

Im with you on that one. I love the name.

I just want to hear the commentator saying it fast over and over as the horse gallops past all the others
