[¡Cereal Killer!]

Let's get a sweepstake running

[JJ McClure]

I'm going for "Soon To Be Glue" at 600/1

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

how utterly hilarious

 

[BIRCHYBOY27]

Simon for me + silver birch

 

[crodonilson]

A pony on Jack High at 33/1

 

[Beach Hut]

Le Duc for me

 

[surrey jim]

[Wondergull]

The method i use has worked every year since Monty's Pass won it in 2003. So far i have narrowed the field down to Numbersixvalverde, Kelami, Point Barrow, Bewley's Berry, Longshanks, Silver Birch, Joes Edge and finally A New Story.

 

[robbied69]

L'Ami for this year.

 

[Goodfella]

£10 EW on Eurotrek for me.

 

[Mtoto]

Royal Auclair would bring up quite a double for his owner, who also owns Kauto Star.

He's only got four horses in training, it would be incredible if he could get the Gold Cup/National double up with two of them.

 

[Mtoto]

Think Point Barrow has a huge chance, btw, and wouldn't be surprised to see L'Ami start favourite on the day thanks to the McManus-McCoy factor, so the 18 on Betfair at the mo is very fair if you're looking to back-to-lay.

 

[¸.·´¯`·.¸><((((º>]

fucks sake, is Exotic Dancer not declared? had an antepost on the fucker after Cheltenham

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

whose it to be

 

[Woodchip]

Oh, it's not a sweepstake.

 

[bhafc4eva]

Im on Joes Edge and Longshanks e/w had the winner last 10 years running so due a loser

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

Joe's Edge now 10/1

 

[Braders]

fiver on Silver Berch and Point Barrow methinks
