How your Grand National sweepstake kit works
Here’s our step-by-step guide to running a 2024 Grand National sweepstake.
- Round up a group of friends, family or colleagues. The wider the pool, the better, so you ideally have one horse for each of the 32 people taking part in your 2024 Grand National sweepstake.
- Decide how much it costs to enter your Grand National sweepstake, alongside the prizes that will be won, so everyone knows what’s at stake. As a suggestion, you could charge £3 to pick a horse, making a £96 pot. Your Grand National sweepstake winner could then take £50, with £25 going to the runner-up, £15 for third place, £5 for fourth spot and the remaining £1 saved for the owner of the final horse to finish.
- Print two copies of the Grand National sweepstake kit page. Keep one copy so you can write down everyone’s horses and cut out the runners from the other copy. Fold them and put them into a hat (or another suitable container).
- Now ask everyone entering to randomly draw one of the Grand National sweepstake horses. As they do so, add their names to the the Grand National sweepstake kit page, so you have a record of who has which horse.
- As people pick the sweepstake horses, you can check our Grand National runners page to give them an idea of their chances and increase the anticipation ahead of the race.
- Make sure you sell all the horses. If you have some left after everyone has chosen a horse, check if anyone wants a second or third Grand National sweepstake horse!
If you’re one for statistics, odds, calculated risk, sweepstakes mightn’t be enough excitement. Take your bets one step further:
