Don't bet what you can't afford to lose, and judging by your recent posts, you shouldn't be betting a penny!

Gambling is a mugs game, there's only ever one winner ;)

+1 completely agree.

Nope. Whats the point, everybody runs out and has a bet, but they never bet the rest of the time and they know nothing about horse racing. If I did want to have a bet I would be better betting on the F1 this weekend as at least I know somthing about it!

So how many horses were shot last year? no thanks.

Thats a good point, its a horrible thought

[sacko]

2 last year, it was 6 at Cheltenham earlier on the year.

Don't really gamble much anymore, have nappies to buy instead! :s

Every time I've put a bet in the national in the past the horse I bet on got shot. So I stopped betting on it years ago and won't again.

To be fair, you proposed 5 weeks of saving for an MCPX; I'd have thought the same as jamiem
