Always the same isn't it.

Yet another guy in our office won it last year, won the fantasy football league last year as well and this year pulled out 'Ballabriggs' or whatever, which is apparently the favourite. Jammy git.

Aye I never get a favorite but I suppose anyone can win the national, year before last Mon Momme won at 100/1.

Love the National, every fucker coming out thinking they know about horses and what they're on about, but in truth they have just read The Sun.
