5 good bets punting on #BYNR

For many of us, books are staple commodities, not luxuries.

I have invented a book race to see which of my five Bent Banana Books April Specials sells the most.

I am calling the race the Grand Notional Staplechase. I am against horses jumping over obstacles but new books have to do it all the time.

I will list the form of the five horses/ books as they appear in the official race-guide, http://bentbananabooks.com/

The race finishes April 30.

1.        

Well-bred by Bernie Dowling out of Pop Culture.

Runs a funny race with short sprints and seems to always want to chase Rock Music, Aussie Slang and Crime.

Had only two starts before review judges and scored first (5-stars) both times.

Lack of experience may hinder.

Discount cost $1.99

Odds 7-1

In the stables of Amazon, Apple, B&N, Google Kobo and others: Amazon stable http://geni.us/3mZH
