The bookies odds look miserly and I am finding it hard to see a value bet.

This is a race where horses with a proven record seem to excel but I don't really fancy last years winner Mon Mome.

Comply Or Die won in 2008 and has been laid out for this race. 20/1 each way is tempting. The Pipe stable apparently fancy one of their other entries The Package but no horse aged 7 has won this race since 1940.

King John's Castle was 2nd two years ago but has had a lot of injuries since. He is well handicapped and has been prepared with this race in mind. If I could get 50/1 each way I would be tempted but the best odds at present are 33/1.

Dream alliance won the Welsh National earlier in the year and I got a nod that Flintoff might well be worth an each way bet.

Can you bet on how many horses die?
