Grand National 2012

Added Synchronised to place as an afterthought earlier. Less hope for him now though, but AP McCoy at the reigns swayed me.

Thankfully I have my fleet of other bets to turn to.
 
What's this about my horse getting all warm just because Synchronised shat the bed? Steward's enquiry.
 
Go on Shaka. If I don't pick up something from this with an each way now I'll be a bit gutted.
 
Had Planet of Sound on my shortlist but ruled him out due to being too heavy.

Got Shaka and Seabass though
 
I don't know anyone that backed Neptune Collanges.

Did all the horses survive or when do we normally find that out?
 
£5 win on the winner, could have been so much better! Think I took 25/1 aswell.
 
Who were top 5?

1. Neptune Collanges
2. Sunnyhillboy
3. Seabass
4. Cappa Bleu
5. ????
 
I've laid out £130 on the national this year, reckon I'm gonna get the winner and a big each way up!

£55 win SEABASS
£10 win SYNCHRONISED
£5 win BALLABRIGGS
£5 win SHAKALAKABOOMBOOM
£5 win NEPTUNE COLLONGES
£10 e/w VIKING BLOND
£10 e/w ARBOR SUPREME
£5 e/w WEIRD AL

Hopefully SEABASS to win and VIKING BLOND and ARBOR SUPREME to finish 3rd and 4th, will net me over £2500 :devil:

Got paid 33/1 on the winner and a tenner back for non runner weird al, £130 laid out, £170 back. Not too shabby.
 
Meh.

I had a tenner on Seabass to win outright @ 16-1 and £2.50 each way on sunnhillboy @ 20-1.

I was not amused with that finish.
