Grand National Sweepstake
Thursday, April 8th, 2010 08:29 pmDay 98 I have a horse in the work sweepstake for the Grand National:
We've been doing this for years, with prizes for 1st, 2nd and 3rd, but I've never won anything. The usual thing for my horse is to be at the front at some stage in the race but to fade away at the end and come in at the back of the crowd. I tend to keep an eye on the odds given by the major betting shops to see how well mine is reckoned - this one has odds of 16-1 online, not bad but not prizewinning.
