Aintree's Grand National meeting kicks off on Thursday, with four Grade Ones among the seven races taking place.
A number of Cheltenham Festival winners are in action at the Merseyside venue and Irish trainers have some well fancied runners over the next few days after their domination at Prestbury Park last month.
But Paul Nicholls has notably kept a strong group of horses fresh for this meeting and he'll be hoping to get a winner on the board this afternoon.
