Anyone going to put their neck out and offer a tip. FTR I fancy a good E/W on Holywell.

Yesterday at Aintree I picked 4 winners , but never backed them, so far today (coz I backed em) nowt. I expect the rest to fail cos I backed em!

Pick a random number between 1-40 and then bet on that one, it's just a lottery of a horse race.

Was pissed off the other week as my footy bets were down by 3.10pm so whacked my last £20 on a horse in the Welsh National purely at random. Won at 20/1 and led from start to finish. Will probably do same for this one.

Sods law, more losers. I reckon they did it on purpose cos I backed em. Anyway A tip I had for the 16.05 is Bishops Road. FTR I haven't backed it, so it has more chance of winning. PS if it doesn't win don't shoot the messenger!

PPS NO I haven't picked it for the name, it is a tip, from someone, who knows someone, who knows the trainers sisters, dry cleaner etc!

With the Bet 365 offer you cant go wrong really. I've backed 14 different horses each way in the race tomorrow. Total stakes £200, of which £100 has already been refunded.

If any of them wins I will be in profit, if I can get at least one other placed should have had a good day.

Its not a race I used to bother with before the BET 365 offer, but if they want to give money away its daft not to take it off them.

if thats an almost guranteed profit can you post a screenshot of ya betting slip?

I got the kids to pick one each, I picked one and the mrs picked 2, she couldn't decide between them. We went for

Wonderful Charm
Ballycassey
Just A Par
Boston Bob
Onenightinvienna

No reason for picking them, all just a stab in the dark

Mr Monty, I think you meant the Brotherhood of Man. They won the Eurovision song contest in the seventies. But try an E/W bet, otherwise you'll never know!!!!!! :animals-cow:

Ps Apols for my "Tip" yesterday it fell at the first, but I'm sure if it didn't it would have won! Anyway I'm innocent as I was given the tip.
