My Horse won The Grand National! I need to know how much i've won I had a bet on the Grand National, odds 16/1, i bet £1 each way, so my stake was £2, and my horse won out of a field of 39. This was the first time i've bothered to have a flutter too. 
I think it's about £40something. I won't be able to return my slip 'til Monday so i'm curious. No telling me off about betting on horses, i think most of the adult population of the UK have a bet on this race.  |

Probably about £20: £1 win = £16 £1 place - let say they give you 1/5 the odds to place, gets you 1*16/5 = £3.20 Total profit = £19.20. Plus your £2 back. Sorry!! | |

well done Marrk.
I bet on the horse races all the time. There's nothing wrong with that, it's lots of fun.  When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading. | |
