"I Am Maximus is also trained by Mullins, heading the field and aiming to become the eighth runner to win the Grand National more than once. 'He ran a blinder last year off top weight, but he missed his third run that year and maybe that told in the final furlong or so,' said Patrick Mullins."
"The race will start at 16:00 BST and usually takes between nine and 11 minutes to complete. Mullins will be riding Grangeclare West this time and says his horse 'has to have a shout'."

"Aintree could see sunshine for the race, according to the Met Office, which projects a temperature of around six degrees and a 30% chance of rain at the time of the race."
