So it looks like prices have actually gone up? Gate Price is £126 for Club enclosure. I think it was slightly less this year. The super-early bird price of £83 is more than the early bird price I paid for the 2023 festival ...

The person with the disability buys the ticket and then applies for an assistance ticket
you will have to email them proof of disability
There are no checks on the gate so I suppose anyone could use them

…they were de-stickied so should be in a single thread a number of pages back. I do them but don’t think we got a return this year (unless somebody tells me differently).
Hopefully get back to winning ways this time around. Following this month’s selection, I’ll pop a thread in the sticky section to capture all monthly bets. The ‘monthly captain’ system seems popular so we can try that out, hopefully FJs will volunteer to have a go.Last edited by Eggs; 18 March 2025, 01:10 PM.Comment

Found them. Thanks. Looks like the August Yankee got a decent double return on Marine National @ 14/1 with Caldwell Potter @ 20/1. Congratulations to somer1. Maybe he could step up to the Plate and do the first one for 2026 and get us off to a fast start.
August ‘24 somer1 Yankee;
Marine National 14-1 CC
Caldwell Potter 20-1 Turn
Willy de Houelle 12-1 TH

Inothewayurthinkin was one of several horses taken out of the Grand National at the latest scratchings stage, with Gold Cup third Gentlemansgame, the fourth home Monty’s Star and the fifth placed The Real Whacker also among those who will not be lining up.
With a total of 67 horses still in contention, both Paddy Power and Coral make Tom Gibney’s Intense Raffles their new 6-1 favourite. Despite Inothewayurthinkin’s defection, McManus still has two leading contenders in Iroko and last year’s winner I Am Maximus, who are 8-1 joint second-favourites with the latter firm.
“The scratching of Inothewayurthinkin has completely changed the make-up of the Grand National betting. Irish Grand National winner Intense Raffles is the new favourite, but it is now a more open betting event,” said Coral’s John Hill.
“Inothewayurthinkin would have gone off a very short-priced favourite, possibly as short as 2-1, but it’s now hard to predict what will start as favourite, with Iroko and I Am Maximus also in the frame to top the betting on the day.
“Although JP McManus will not have Inothewayurthinkin wearing his silks, he still has a very strong hand in the race, with Iroko and I Am Maximus at the top end of the betting.”
