Trevor Hemmings looking for fourth winner
There's plenty of local interest in this afternoon's big race at Aintree.
The 2019 Grand National is off at 5.15pm and features three horses owned by well-known Island resident and racing enthusiast Trevor Hemmings - Vintage Clouds, Lake View Lad and Warriors Tale.
With three wins in the event already to his name, victory this afternoon would make him the most successful owner in Grand National history.
Mr Hemmings says he's always enjoyed great support from his adopted homeland:
