Septic Peg's Grand National Tips

08/04/15 -- I know that we all like a punt on the Grand National, which is coming up again on Saturday just in case you didn't know. It's handy then that my spirit guide Septic Peg has been in touch from "the other side" via the medium of telepathy, proffering a few tips....

She's predicting a close-run thing between The Druid's Nephew and a horse called Soll in the big race, with the later just getting the nod. Soll is currently available at 20/1 with a variety of bookies, including High Street favourites such as BetFred, Willy Hill, Laddies and Coral. You can get 14/1 on The Druid's Nephew with Laddies.

The favourite this year is a thing called Shutthefrontdoor, largely because it's ridden by the people's darling A P McCoy in his last ever ride in the race before he hangs up his jodphurs and retires at the end of the season. That's a good enough reason not to back it if you ask me.

If you fancy having an each way punt at big odds then Septic Pegs says that Corrin Wood (66/1) could be worth a couple of quid.

Ooooooooooohhhhhhhhh, the voices are fading, I'll have to go I've got Sitting Bull and Pocahontas on the other ouija board....
