    Don't want to jinx the horse so I'll not bother betting. If I put on multiple horses there'd be a massacre at the end. I stick to football, up around 240 over the last 3 days.

    Ended up with 6 horses all each way as always let wife and kids pick a horse each and I went for a couple, but had £2 leftover so stuck it on another.

    Anibale Fly
    Livelovelaugh
    Monbeg Notorious
    Vintage Clouds
    Then two outsiders of Mala Beach and Magic of Light.

    So now you all know what not to bet as none of them will finish in top 6, guaranteed!

    Lake View Lad
    Some funny named horse Teillees or something like that

    Got a place but that's all.

    Fair play to Tiger Roll, but absolute * bet, if it was slighty higher woulda gave it a go into the bargain it was my fav number but not worth it.

    What was the horse at the first that clearly couldn’t get up? Saw them putting the screens up in the distance to do what they needed to do, brutal :54:

    Looks as though got 2nd and 5th but can’t get on Paddy Power to check my winnings, seems to be only bookie to have crashed both website and app :31:

    Well he’s good at first past the post, especially from 5 yards out.

    I backed three horses: one died, I think one disappeared and my £1 e/w on a random 100-1 came second. It's a weird sport though. I can't understand how people get so into it, unless you're * minted.
