it is coming up to that time of year again – well, almost – when the greatest betting race of the year will be run – the Grand National 2012.

Note that I didn’t say the greatest race, but the greatest betting race. This is the race that people who never bet on anything will have a gamble. And it is a gamble. But it has got to be one of the greatest racing spectacles of all the racing year.

This year we hope to be able to provide a tip for a good shot at finishing the race so stay tuned.
