The Grand National is one of the biggest events on the sporting calendar, and fans are getting ready for another huge day at Aintree.
Huge sums have already been placed ahead of the showpiece, while the volume of bets is only likely to climb ahead of Saturday. The race is part of a busy weekend programme at Aintree, with a 5.15pm start time pencilled in.
Not everyone will be trying to outsmart the bookies and find value in the market, though. Plenty of would-be punters prefer to go down the sweepstake route, and Mirror Sport has got your back if that sounds like you.
Plenty of people will find themselves sitting down to watch the Grand National without knowing the first thing about betting odds. A sweepstake can still allow fans to have a horse to cheer for, though, with something on the line.
You can print out out sweepstake kit and then cut out the names of all the horses taking part in the Grand National. Then once you've set an entry fee, everyone is free to pick a name out of a hat.
