Dear Jon,

What better time to try 888sport than the world's greatest horse race?

We've credited your account with a £5 Free Bet to use for the world-renowned Grand National at Aintree!

Will you pick the winning horse?

woop!

Ha! I got the same email!

Can someone please clarify the bet365 offer in simple terms? Am I to use the each way calculator to do this? PA has tied me in knots!!

If you bet £250 ew you get £125 back in cash immediately. This means you need to only deposit £125.

Yes, you need to use the ew calculator.

The bonus is if one of the horses you back finishes 5th you will get the ew winnings from that bet as s bonus. Reason for this - bet365 are offering 5 places but with smarkets/betfair when you lay the bet it is only to 4 places.

And should the liability be fairly big here? I’m looking at doing the 5x£25 instead. At back and lay odds of 15 and place odds of 6.4 it’s coming out at £350 and £95...
Or if I stick the full £125 it’s this:

Don't forget to pick up all the free spins out there today! Hit a bonus round on Betfair and finished £30 up! Took some of the sting out of halving my balance on that stupid Macau promotion yesterday lol

The long odds on all these Grand National gee gees are killing my exchange balance. Stuffed myself up by stupidly working through the day's offers in order of the races and now haven't got much left in the exchange to spend on the National. Will have to wait for the other races to clear first and hope I don't hit any winners. Luckily I had enough to do the B365 offer though.

Note to all - don't forget the B365 bets have to be on by midday to qualify for the money back offer.

I normally dislike this phrase, but it is totally appropriate here... OMG!!! I was faffing around this morning looking at stuff and totally did not see the "by midday thing". Thank you so much... all bets now on!!!

And yes.. goodbye exchange money... see you later!

£2 each way on Anibale Fly. I was given 2 tips. Golden Present or something like that is a non runner

Good luck!
Total recall's odd have really dropped!!

Not that odds mean anything with a steeplechase like this!
