Grand National Sweepstake

It's the Grand National at Aintree today. I'm not much of a betting person, but even as a child, this is the one thing my Dad would make an annual trip to the bookies for and I can remember getting to choose the horse with the name I liked best.

I've not actually put a bet on this year but have taken part in the sweepstake at work. Having read about my horse "remains not one to rely on and very doubtful stayer over this trip" I'm not holding my breath that I'll be picking up any winnings today!
