FREE INSIDE SWEEPSTAKE KIT FOR THE GRAND NATIONAL

THIS year’s Grand National could be a history-making punters’ paradise – with Betfred and your Daily Express helping you pick the winner.

A woman has never won the four-mile, 30-fence race but this year Katie Walsh is aboard one of the hotly tipped favourites.

Normally just 15 per cent of gamblers are women but when it comes to the Grand National 48 per cent of ladies have a flutter.

Now you can use our sweepstake kit for tomorrow’s 171st running of the world’s most famous steeplechase.

Yesterday Betfred boss Fred Done said: “I’ve been in the game over 50 years and it’s still my favourite day of the year.

“I’ve seen it all from Foinavon winning at 100/1; paying out the whole of Merseyside when Red Rum won and going crazy when AP McCoy finally won on Don’t Push It.

“At the top of the market at the moment we have a fight to be the favourite.

“Come the day I expect Blaklion to be popular, not only with drinkers in hostelries but also with those who saw him win over the big fences in December.

“He went off favourite last year but will face competition for that position from Total Recall.

“But Baie Des Iles is also proving massively popular and is the married couples’ pick. She has plenty going for her as she is ridden by Katie Walsh, trained by her husband Ross and will produce a huge story, in a race famous for producing romance.”
