A Manx owned racehorse will be looking for back to back victories in the Grand National this afternoon.

Ballabriggs is the 3rd favourite with many bookmakers behind Cheltenham gold cup winner Synchronised and Shaklakaboomboom.

He's owned by Isle of Man resident Trevor Hemmings.

Many betting sites are offering odds of around 12/1 or 14/1.

The Grand National is due to get underway at Aintree at 4.15pm.
