Hedgehunter's been very good to me!

We've been picking horses at random here in the office.

I ended up with Slim Pickings in one with odds of 11-1 and a jackpot of about £25, and another one with a winning amount of about £80. Only problem is, in that one I picked out Contraband at 500-1!

Me and the girls at work backed Contraband at Cheltenham @ 1000/1!! You'd think we'd know better being Bookies lol, was worth £1ew though, my money is on Comply or die for the National, had a tip for it.
