The Grand National

One of the biggest sporting events of the year, the Grand National is the ultimate test of bravery and stamina as the best steeplechasers and their riders take on the most challenging fences in horse racing.

There’s something special about the Grand National. It’s a race steeped in history which has seen everything from the legendary Red Rum winning a historic treble in the 1970s to the dramas of false starts which resulted in a void race in 1993.

For the 40 racehorses and riders, the Grand National provides the ultimate test of endurance and bravery as they attempt to negotiate two circuits of the Aintree course, and 30 of the most famous and imposing fences in the world over four and a half miles.

While the Grand National is watched by millions at home, nothing beats actually being there and experiencing the electric atmosphere and roar of the crowd as the tape goes up. Back your favourite and cheer them on as the nail-biting action unfolds.
