Junior has strong each way claims.

Not risking my normal bundles, just a few quid, on a race I have only backed two winners in 40+ years.

He's lost it atm, can't present a horse to a flight for money, thought he had an abysmal Cheltenham. Looks like he needs a holiday.

I'm such a hypocrite because i love horse racing,but feel so guilty and ashamed when watching the grand national.
It was ridiculous watching that race unfold. Too many runners and the fences are to big imo.

I've surprised myself at how sad I was when I heard the news about Synchronised. Going from Gold Cup winner to being put down inside a month is just wrong.  Especially with what happened pre-race. Almost feels like he didn't want to race, even when McCoy showed him the first fence prior to the race he (the horse) just didn't seem right.

Think they'll be a few questions about this.
