The national

Cappa Bleu.

With Across The Bay and your laughing, both each way mind. Will both be first four bar mishaps.

Running is so natural to them and I'm not against it at all. Some of those fences are just beyond belief. I cried at seabiscuit and secretariat is one of my favourite films, they are built to run. I don't believe in fences

Ah seabiscuit.... I cried too ;-)

Red Rum was my favourite National horse ever. When you look back at the old footage of him you can see he loved the jumps. His ears used to prick up and then he'd belt out on the flat almost relishing the thought of the next jump.

I've seen more cruelty in regular riding stables if I'm honest. Some horses, when I went riding, were ridden from morning till night until the day when they were sent to the knackers yard.

My sister owns three horses and they are her world. She's up on the moors twice a day looking after them. If you have never seen secretariat you should watch it, it's even better that the seabiscuit film imo

I know that private owners love their horses, I was just comparing the lives of some horses to those in the racing world.

Will secretariat make me cry? :-(

Pick a 9-11 year old. Most of the field granted

Don't pick a female jockey

Don't pick a grey.

Don't back the favourite (3 out of the last 30)
