"The grand national.
Where every fucker suddenly becomes an expert in horse racing once a year...."
No they don't. They Try pic an horse for a bit of fun by choosing names, colours jockeys trainers.
Even us regular punters do it just for a bit of fun and don't take it seriously. |

It was tongue in cheek, it's the same with any big event that people don't usually follow.
Perfect example being the manny p vs floyd mayweather boxing match.

Can you do it online? I feel like that would be easier than going into a betting shop and not knowing what to do  |

Doing it online feels like a cop-out. I have been tempted to just stroll in and ask a few times over the years but come to the conclusion that I've got enough vices for now. |

Yeh let's ban everything where there is a risk or any animals involved
No racing no show jumping no dressage no dog racing no fishing. You it's not natural to domesticate animals at all so we should ban farming and all pets as well. |

Its not the risk. Its the fact that they are put on drugs and forced to race too young and whipped.
I am a vegetarian and use cruelty free cleaning and bueauty products. I reguarly donate to animal charities.
So yes. Ban anything that involves cruelty to animals. Not just horse racing
