    On from Thursday 7th to Saturday 9th April, with the big one on the Saturday at 4.15pm.

    Anyone heading to it this year?

    Anyone any horses they fancy over the three days?

    Went myself a few years ago and Ladies Day(Friday) is a sight to behold.

    Got a €10 free bet from PP there, so threw €5ew on Character Building @ 33/1 in the big one, hopefully the ground will be softer than good.

    Ah, was expecting it to be more complicated than that. I'm a tad disappointed now to be honest :D

    Thanks Paddy! :)

    Like the look of that Russian War (ew) in the 22 runner handicap @ 5.25pm, backed him at 16/1. Interesting that Orsippus's trainer thinks he is a much better horse around Aintree so going to back him ew at 12/1 in the same race.
