Grand National 2023: Use our interactive widget to pick your horse for the big race

The Grand National returns this weekend, with fans already gathering ahead of the huge day at Aintree. The world's greatest steeplechase will take place from 5.15pm on Saturday, April 15.

Millions will also find themselves sitting down to watch the race without knowing the first thing about betting odds, the jockeys or horses. But it is the one horse race of the year that seems to unite the country - even those without detailed knowledge of racing.

Fear not though, Nottinghamshire Live has got your back if that sounds like you. We have put together a widget to help you pick your horse.

All you need to do is move the sliders to select how important form, weight, the jockey and the odds are to you and it will give you a horse. You can't set all the bars to the right so you'l have to choose what's most important.

The Grand National will be broadcast live on ITV, with a number of other races from Aintree also being shown by the broadcaster. This means those fans who weren't able to snap up tickets to be there in person can still follow the action as it happens

It will take place on the third and final day of action at Aintree. It is the sixth of seven events scheduled to be run on Saturday, April 15, with a start time of 5.15pm.
