Bradley Lowery, the little boy who is battling a rare form of cancer, will be recognised at Aintree on Saturday with an honorary 41st place in the Randox Health Grand National.

The five-year-old, who suffers from neuroblastoma, will be at Aintree along with his family as he is listed as the 41st competitor in the racecard for the world's most famous steeplechase, with his own set of silks in the red and white of his beloved football team, Sunderland FC.
