    * 2nd Balthazar King great horse done well with the horse this season won in October think it was at Cheltenham at 5/1 and 11/2 at Cheltenham in March and it won again so two wins and a Grand National 2nd couldn't ask for more from the horse. Dicky Johnson had me worried winning on Duke Of Lucca but Balthazar King what a horse don't know how much I'm gonna get back can't work it out will have to wait till monday.

    3rd last year and 3rd again this year. There's not many years I don't get one of the first three. I should probably start betting E/W instead of on the nose.

    A bit gutted about Pineau De Re winning as it's one of the horses I was seriously considering as my E/W shot but I went for Burton Port instead, which fell at the 2nd fence. :87:

    I got blocked on Twitter a couple years ago by Rory McIlroy for complaining about this event.
