    The 3 female jockeys are not surprisingly getting a lot of coverage particularly Rachael Blackmore after her Cheltenham rides.
    Her horse Minella times was fancied even before she got the ride and had been heavily backed.
    May start 2nd favourite.
    @Frank Castle@Frank Castle is right though.It’s a bit of a lottery.
    Don’t know if you are a regular better but lots of companies have special offers on Grand national day.
    It’s worth a few quid on a few e/w bets based on family names and places you live etc..

    Good luck

    Fairytale ending to amateur jockey Sam Waley-Cohen's career yesterday. What a way to end your career with a National win on your last ever ride.

    Backed 5 horses EW (7 places) as I do every year. I picked 2 (finished 5th and 6th). My daughter picked one (finished 7th). The son picked one (pulled up) and the missus picked one (fell at the first).
