2-1 Another Set Of Gnashers For National Winning Jockey?



BOOKIES ANTICIPATE JOCKEYS TO CASH IN ON GRAND NATIONAL STARDOM

Britain’s biggest bookies William Hill are anticipating some Grand National jockey high-jinks following last year’s Clare Balding 'Toothgate' affair.

As a result of his win last year, winning rider Liam Treadwell has since benefited from a ‘dentistry endorsement ‘ to fix his broken gnashers – and the wily jockeys aren’t slow to cotton onto the possibility of an earner!

Jokingly – or maybe not - Leading National Hunt jockey Robert ‘Choc’ Thornton has already declared that if he wins the race, he’d be prepared to drop his breeches in a post-race interview with BBC’s Clare Balding in order to secure augmentation – so bookmakers William Hill are offering odds on which part of their anatomy the winning jockey might secure improvement to.

Most obvious is another set of gnashers at 2-1, whilst a nose job is 4-1 and its 6-1 for laser eye surgery, 16-1 for hair implants and 20-1 that Ruby Walsh, the prematurely grey-haired 30 -year old aboard the hot favourite Big Fella Thanks, is signed-up to advertise ‘Just For Men’ within a month of the big race.

Kate Miller, spokeswoman for William Hill, said: ‘’The jockeys’ weighing room is a hub of practical jokes – and they are renowned for showing no shame when it comes to pranks. We know they’re up to something – we just haven’t figured out what!’’
