Grand National Free Bets
April 1, 2008
I was amazed to receive an email from skybet, to inform us that they were suspending their free bet offer for the Grand National on Saturday. This amazed us that a top bookmaker would withdraw their incentive to get new customers just in time for the biggest horse race in the country, where there are more bets placed than any other race, most of which by the ordinary person (who doesn’t usually place a bet).
The increase in the number of bets placed for the Grand National is sparked by the huge amount of publicity the race enjoys, and the fervor that the general public picks up during the lead up to the Aintree Grand National. In fact there’s hardly an office which doesn’t run some form of sweepstake such as the Free National Sweepstake you can download.
