The Grand National Digital Sweepstake

The Grand National is just around the corner! To celebrate, we've built a brand new, free digital platform that reinvents the classic 'names in a hat' sweepstake. You can jump in and grab a horse for yourself, or easily set up a private league for your office, pub, or group chat. Everyone chips in a £5 entry online, and our system randomly assigns your horses. Exactly 50% of the pot goes to the lucky winners, and the other 50% comes straight to us to fund vital rehabilitation for our rescue horses. Let's get the Saturday fun sorted early!
