Grand National Luck! It’s All In The Stars!

The great British betting public seek inspiration in many forms when trying to pick a winner and Saturday’s John Smith’s Grand National will be no exception as half the adult population attempt to find a winner in the famous race.
Some punters scour the horoscope pages this weekend to see if their luck is in for the National – but maybe they should check out the horse’s fortunes instead!

Bookies William Hill have worked out the zodiac of this year’s 40 runners and now you can have a flutter on their star signs!

William Hill spokeswoman Jennie Prest said, “Many people have traits attributed to their own sign, and there is no reason why horses should be any different! This year, Taurus is favourite – which coincidentally was the sign of last year’s winner Mon Mome.’’
