bielesibub Posted April 13, 2023 Share Posted April 13, 2023 (edited) It's that time again when the entire world seems to have a bet. Any one got any good tips? Any good free bets flying about? I see Skybet are paying 7 places. Undeterred by my poor predictions at Cheltenham, I'll be having a crack and will no doubt be shown up by one of my kids.

gwi1890 Posted April 13, 2023 Share Posted April 13, 2023 Had Shiskin and Zenta in a double today for a decent return . Free bets on bet 365 I believe after first stake. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferguson1 Posted April 13, 2023 Share Posted April 13, 2023 Le Milos and/or Galvin have a real chance I reckon. Cheeky E/W bets: Roi Mage, Hill Sixteen, The Big Breakaway 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leemond2008 Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 I will have a hoss or two before the race but I've just looked at the names and not one of them is jumping out at me, usually I'll see a couple that I immediately like and I'll stick with them.

fightoffyour Posted April 14, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted April 14, 2023 No sign of the super Bet365 offer yet is there? Would be the first time in many years they haven't done it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth a few grand that if you maxed out the offer? And a guaranteed ~ £100 Few fun bets it is then. Edited April 14, 2023 by fightoffyour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonyh29 Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 Minella Trump has something like a 53% win rate and is 66-1 on Sky bet , presumably that's because other people know far more than I do about these things , but it could be a decent each way I should add , that I've never won on the National and most of my bets / sweepstake horses fall in the first couple of fences ... I think I actually had a horse finish last year which is a rarity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bielesibub Posted April 14, 2023 Author Share Posted April 14, 2023 if you've got accounts with bookies that have daily free games (Coral, Ladbrokes, PaddyPower, William Hill) try them out, I've just won enough to cover more than a few cheeky bets for today and tomorrow. Also remember the free daily pick a winner horse competitions, like itv7, betway 4 to win, Paddy's Pick 5. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wainy316 Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 The days of decent bookie offers are long gone. Bet365 used to be king whenever there was a big meeting on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fightoffyour Posted April 14, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted April 14, 2023 Can't even get on Bet365 with a VPN. Would cost me £5 a day to roam with Three to login there, so only worthwhile if they had their mega offer. Hope they have a shit year of it and bring the offer back in future.
