Grand National Fever

 

The Grand National will soon be upon us. On the 6th april to be specific. The Aintree extravaganza will once again enthral the nation and make the headlines as well draw the attention of an estimated 500 million + people around the world. This prestigious event will be the talking point in countless homes and workplaces, just as it is every year.

With this being the one horse racing event that sets friends and family a chatter, and results in endless competitions and sweepstakes, it really does draw the eyes of the nation, and the front pages of the national newspapers. One aspect of the Grand National 2013 that especially appeals to potential punters is the fact that big priced winners really are quite commonplace. The 2012 winner Neptunes Collonges came in at 33/1, 2011 winner Ballabriggs was 14/1 and let’s not forget 2009’s Mom Mome at a staggering 100/1. It’s the roulette spin of racing events where everyone is in with a chance. Who knows what surprises the 2013 event holds. Time will tell.

Speaking of which, this time around the betting market would have us believe that ‘On His Own’ at 6/1 is the way to go. Though he’s closely followed by Seabass (8/1), Cappa Bleu (10/1) and Colbert Station (10/1). Other contenders include Sunnyhillboy, Chicago Grey and Imperial Commander. Let’s not forget though that this is the Grand National, so anything is possible. With odds ranging from 6/1 from 200/1 and 30 jumps in between, it’s anyone guess. Be sure to place a bet and tune in!
