IIIIIIII HAVE A DREE............... THEORY!
Yeah. I have a theory.
The Green and Yellow theory (No manc green and gold shite)
Jockeys with Green/Yellow silks have finished in the top three in something like 8, out of the last 10 Nationals.
So with that in mind, I went out earlier today, and spent £70.
I put £10 on the nose of all seven starters in green/yellow silks.
Winner coming home at the odds I took @ 14/1. So I doubled my money.
We-hey !
