Re: Grand National 2008
don't pick the favourite, they don't win often and you don't win much if they do.

3 favourites have won in the last 12 runnings at 7-1 each which would actually give you a profit if you had bet on the favourite every year withint that time-frame. (Doesnt apply if you go further back though)

I once won the sweepstake at work with Aldernete.

It's Hedgehunter, Daisy. Don't want him stopping to munch the steeples.

Good choice, me too, and you might like to also consider:

Chelsea Harbour, Slim Pickings and Mr Pointment

I agree in general. But the Grand National is an exception and my 150 quid says otherwise Its also one of the best value and easiest horse races to pick the winner.
