    Considering everything that happened pre Cheltenham, Blackmore's success has been such a welcomed boost for the sport and a massive positive in the last month and I'm delighted for her and the sport. Over the moon.

    Hon Ireland.

    Just realised De Bromhead had a 1-2 there, got caught up in the emotion of Rachael winning.

    He has had some festival season.

    Had a last minute 2.50 e/w on Balko (Sorry for the a.t.) but absolutely delighted for Blackmore. Wasn't even shouting for my bet tbh. (Also had a similar amount on two others so didn't win much anyway)

    Well, I'm a stupid bastid anyway. Must have forgotten to click the e/w box!!!!!!!!!!! Says my Balko bet was to win.

    As long as 50/1 a couple of months back, SP of 11/1. PP estimated, yesterday, they will have to pay out £15m quid if she won.

    Thought Minella was too short pre-race but shows what I know.

    Absolutely delighted for Rachel. She is a superstar.

    Weights released today, Tiger Roll rated at 166, a rating O'Leary has said he will not allow the horse to run off.

    Would be tempted to take a punt on Minella Times at 50/1 who looks chucked in off its weight.

    50/1 winner, I hope you had plenty on.

    Quarn hard not to be swept up in the emotion of it all. Delighted for Rachael- an absolute gem of a jockey and a credit to her family.

    Cannot beat sport for drama.

    Brilliant win and a genuinely great ride, never far away. I was roaring her home on the couch here.
    15 finishers, 12 trained in Ireland. 3 UK finishers were 50/1 50/1 and 100/1. I thought Blaklion was going to win at the Melling Road. What has happened to UK jump racing? Shocking performances from a number of the favoured horses. Nearly as bad as some of the coverage-- half the race seemed to be beamed from a helicopter. Bring back the old BBC!

    Am very happy she won, she had an amazing Cheltenham and this is the icing on the cake for her. Sorry for spreading my good luck with fellow punters and "ruining" your perfect thread :rolleyes:

    Cheers. Does the half stake back impact this offer e.g. if i had 10 ew on minella do i have 20 free bet on that race in Kelso?
    Thanks

    About a 50/1 poke at the minute if you're that confident about it. Wide open, it seems, 6s the field.

    I can only assume normal rules apply as you didn't have an option not to take up their grand national offer. I would say try them on webchat in the morning if you are concerned

    It doesn't bother me to be honest,

    Just trying to explain why some get upset with it - which is understandable

    I back about 2 races a year. GN & if someone gives me a tip for something. Backed the winner because Rachel is Irish, from Tipp, a woman, the owner is JP and hubby is from Limerick and Minella is a hotel in Clonmel. Good a reason as any :)

    Haven't backed winner of National since Auroras Encore in 2013 at 80/1 :(

    There's always next year. I'm liking the "will be twelve yr old" who's been carefully managed by Gary Moore, and he'd be getting in off a low weight..
