Last year's Grand National winner Many Clouds is the favourite for this year's event too.

Leighton Aspell will be on board – and he's hoping to become the first jockey to win the race three times in a row.

Two-time winner Ruby Walsh was ruled out last night with a broken wrist.

His place on the Willie Mullins-trained Sir Des Champs will be taken by Nina Carberry.

It goes to post at 5.15pm with the first race of the day off at 1.45pm
