The Randox Grand National takes place on ITV1 at 5.15pm on Saturday April 15 so download our sweepstake kit with our ideas on organising it from home.
If you are working remotely, here's how to run a sweepstake from home...
First, assemble a group of eight, 10, 20 or 40 colleagues, friends and family, then..
Option 1: Conference Call
- Download our pdf for a full list of runners and riders
- Set up a Zoom/Skype call
- Draw runners out of a hat
Option 2: Random Number Generator
- Set up a WhatsApp group
- Type out names of friends in alphabetical order and send to everyone
- Then go to this random number generator and enter 1 in lowest, 40 in highest, and '1' in column boxes
- 40 random numbers (none repeated) will appear in a list
- Assign first generated number of that list to first person in the alphabetical list and so on until everyone has a horse
Option 3: Pick Your Own
- Arrange for friends to take part
- Ask them to pick a number
- That number is their runner
