  • Corach Rambler was a superb winner of the Randox Grand National for trainer Lucinda Russell and jockey Derek Fox.
    Successful at last month’s Cheltenham Festival, the nine-year-old moved powerfully throughout after starting as the 8-1 favourite, in a race that was delayed by around 15 minutes after protestors gained access to the track.
    He jumped into the lead over the last and pulled away when passing the elbow, holding off a closing Vanillier with Gaillard Du Mesnil third and last year’s winner Noble Yeats running a gallant race under his big weight in fourth.
    It was a second victory in the world’s greatest steeplechase for Russell and Fox, after One For Arthur in 2017.

    You won't see an easier winner of the National. Lucinda Russell is a top trainer. One of the very best. If the big owners don't send her some good horses now, they never will

    What a horse and what a ride by Derek Fox. Without doubt the best National ride I have watched in many a year. He knew he was on the best horse and never moved a muscle until he jumped the last fence now that takes some self control and confidence in the biggest horse race of the year. Take a bow and congratulations to the brilliant trainer/team and the owners.

    Didn't like the riders falling off or the horses falling though. I get these are elite horses and rides but horses are still living beings. When you need ambulances riding alongside of a race there needs some rethinking. Darn this is a conflict of interest isn't it. ;-)

    I have followed NH racing for close to 70 years - especially BIG races. Despite the changes to make the jumps so easy (any horse can take lumps out and not to be slowed) there are far too many who fall, and far too many pulled up in distance racing. My suspicion, from a low quality rider's point of view, is that many horses are not trained to jump, nor are they trained for the distance they are required to run.

The height of these fences for a large proportion of the horses run are just too big , on top of the distance of the national creates lots of very tired horses mixed with the huge field what chance do you really have of avoiding terrible injuries and death ?? Hearing from the trainer's that tell us all how well looked after the horses are back at the stables does nothing for dead horses on the race track ! As horse racing fans we all now that these animals are not pets but surely they must still be given the respect of not being asked which is for most the impossible.

    I think the second was a bit unlucky to be honest. Must have lost 10 lengths on the field when they bypassed the fence on the second circuit. Was travelling really well up the inside but when they had to go outside that fence everything was in front of him and got hampered a couple of times when trying to get him back in the race over a couple of fences.

He had to move to France to have a successful career. Robbie Dunne another example.

    By evening out the inside of Becher’s Brook, it’s made all the horses and jocks go down the inside more than ever. Causing traffic problems and pile-ups.

    I know one thing, the Grand National field size will be reduced for next year. I've loved our great sport for years. But even I saw a lot of horses not able to jump well, almost like they haven't been schooled jumping. I can see 25 to 30 runners next year, 40 is too many imo.
