The wife and kids will pick a horse each tomorrow, and I'll put a quid or so on each for them (win if under about 16/1, e/w if longer odds). They know nothing about horse racing, so they'll just pick something that's got pretty silks or a nice name.




Personally, I've got a couple of quid on Shakalakaboomboom.
Cos it's got a cracking name.
Pretend I have a cool signature thing here.
I did, but the host site died and I can't be arsed to find an alternative right now...

Yup I put £1 EW bets on ShakaLakaBoomBoom and According to Pete for my missus because she likes the names...  ;D

I've gone for a £5 EW bet on Junior as my main bet... so expect that to fall at the first people....will place 2 more smaller bets later on today when I get time.


Edit : On His Own and Always Right are my other 2 bets.  :D

I never support this race, two more horses killed as a result of it. >:(
