Run in early April at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool, the Grand National is one of the major betting events in the sporting calendar. It's history and excitement captures the public's imagination, with once-a-year punters coming out in force to have their annual foray into the Grand National betting market. Grand National sweepstakes hit the workplace with bookmakers drafting in more staff to cope with the demand, and more often than not the day ensures a massive payday for the bookies, with the race worth well over £100 million to the betting industry.
