Right guys, it's national day- who we all got?

Horse, price, stake, and crazy comments about hopeless outsiders winning because of tenuous familial links in their name, all chat here!

Wow, just noticed we have a 5/1 hot favourite- that's unheard of on national day isn't it? Cloudy Lane may have to be my pick to win, seeing as I know nothing about horseracing.

Had £20 on Cloudy Lane at 6/1 and also had £20 on Comply or Die at 10/1 a couple of weeks ago - I honestly thought it would be Cloudy Lane would get me the money - so when Comply Or Die did the business for me I was happy.

Bloody good race - must say I thought I was going to get done when they came over the final fence!!!

Got enough money to repair the car now!!! :oops: :oops:

Yeah....bad news that. Had a hunch it would happen as he looked poor in his comeback races.

Anyway, beg, borrow and steal and put your mortgage on Denman for the Gold Cup in 2010. He'll be carrying a shedload of weight but is perfect for the race. Remember where you heard it first!!!!
