Top betting offers for the 2025 Grand National
It's Grand National day and the 177th running of the world's most famous steeplechase is scheduled for 4.00pm. Thirty-four runners go to post, among them last year's winner I Am Maximus, who bids to become the first horse to win the race in successive years since Tiger Roll in 2018 and 2019.
Tiger Roll prepared for both his Grand National wins with victories in the Cross-Country Chase at the Cheltenham Festival, a 3m 5½f test in which the field tackles hills, banks, fences and ditches. The race was won this year by Stumptown, the probable market leader when the big race gets under way.

Grand National top betting offers
1. bet365 – £30 in free bets when you place a £10 bet
This is the perfect welcome offer, whether you are new to the world of betting or an old hand. Deposit and place a qualifying bet and bet365 will give you treble that amount in free bets. It's a flexible offer, so a minimum £5 qualifying bet will see you receive £15 in bet tokens, while a £10 first bet would give you £30 in free bets.
What's more, the minimum odds for your qualifying bet are set very low at just 1/5 (1.2), so you have every chance of keeping your initial stake intact before you use your free bets on the Grand National or any other markets that interest you.
2. Tote – Get £20 in bonuses when you bet £5
The Tote will quadruple your investment in bonuses when you sign up in time for the Grand National. Bet £5 at minimum odds of 1/1 (2.0) on racing or sports markets and it will give you a bonus package worth £20.
There's £10 on Tote Credit to use on its unique racing pools betting products, a £5 sports free bet and 50 free spins that you can use in the Tote's online casino. Overall, there's a range of bonuses that allows you to both bet on the National and try out other areas of the Tote site.
3. William Hill – Get £10 in free bets when you bet £10
For many people who are new to betting, a recognisable bookmaker with a long-established reputation is an appealing prospect. William Hill lives up to that billing, having been founded way back in 1934 and being a pioneer in the world of online betting.
Prospective Grand National punters are likely to be tempted by its offer for the big Aintree race, in which you receive a £10 free bet when you bet £10 on any sports market at odds of 1/1 (2.0) or over.
4. BetMGM – Get a £10 free bet when you place a £10 bet
Another big-name bookie who will double your Grand National betting funds is BetMGM. Sign up to the American betting giant and bet £10 at odds of 1/1 (2.0) or greater and it will earn you a £10 free bet in return.
There are a couple of notable terms and conditions, but nothing to worry about. The free bet cannot be used on e-sports or non-UK/Ireland horse racing, while the minimum odds of the free bet are 2/1. Neither condition is a factor when using the BetMGM free bet on the Grand National.
5. 10Bet – Get 100% welcome bonus up to £50
If you're planning on making a number of big bets on the Grand National, then this 10Bet welcome offer could be the one for you. Sign up and enter the 10Bet bonus code SPORT. Make a first deposit and 10Bet will match it with a 100 per cent bonus payment up to a maximum figure of £50.
What's more, 10Bet will give you your bonus funds as soon as the deposit has been paid, without any need to place a qualifying bet. This is perfect in terms of quickly getting hold of some Grand National free bets. Note that one drawback to this offer is that there are wagering requirements for the deposit and bonus of x8, with bets needing to at least have odds of 4/5 (1.8) to count towards this.
