Left it closer than I wanted to, I had my horses penned early this year but totally forgot about it until I was reminded by someone.




As usual 1/5 odds as standard and I've gone with Bet365 for up to 6 places, no really decent offers going around.

(2025 thread here http://www.tekforums.net/general-discussion/grant-national-2025/)

https://www.oddschecker.com/grand-national/winner <- odds table, remember generally the odds tumble as the event closes in.

Don't bet more than you can afford to lose. The national is quite literally a lottery with so many horses running, the bookies can be "generous" On this event because with such an enormous field and now reduced E/W payouts they still win regardless.

My picks this year, all E/W:

I Am Maximus	7/1
Grangeclare West	9/1
Captain Cody	16/1
Haiti Couleurs	16/1
Monty's Star	20/1
Lecky Watson	40/1
Mr Vango	80/1
Beauport	125/1

YOU'RE CHARMING THE PANTS OFF OF ME


I too, have had a mare here, locked out for months and too lazy to sort it, thanks Clock'd for the assist 



I'm still ridiculously limited at bet365, so won't be using them, prices are swinging about like Linford Christies dick in a sprint already, but I did notice SkyBet are offering 7 places instead of 6, BUT a lot of their prices are not so great, I basically chose horses that were the same price at the other bookies but with the extra seventh place "for value"

Anyway, waffling over,

£5 E/W

Stellar Story 25/1
Quai De Bourbon 28/1

£3.50 E/W

Three Card Brag 40/1
Firefox 50/1
Jordans 25/1

£2.50 E/W

Oscar's Brother 14/1
High Class Hero 40/1
