Grand National 2023
Aintree Grand National | Saturday 15th April 2023
Won the Ultima Handicap Chase at Cheltenham in 2022 and has started this season on decent form though no wins or places yet. Could the 2023 Grand National change that?
NO. 41 | JOCKEY: UNKNOWN | FORM: 4U1-54 | WEIGHT: 10-05 | AGE: 9 | TRAINER: L. RUSSELL
Winner of last year’s Grand National making history as the first 7-year-old to win the race since 1940. High hopes for a repeat win in the 2023 Grand National.
NO. 4 | JOCKEY: UNKNOWN | FORM: 1-P113 | WEIGHT: 11-11 | AGE: 8 | TRAINER: E MULLINS
Another superstar from trainer Willie Mullins but will Gaillard Du Mesnil run at Aintree or will he take his chances at Cheltenham? Has a good chase if he runs in Liverpool.
NO. 19 | JOCKEY: UNKNOWN | FORM: 33-213 | WEIGHT: 11-00 | AGE: 7 | TRAINER: W MULLINS
Moved from Henry De Bromhead to Willie Mullins a year ago, rested for summer and has returned this season with two starts. Brought down in the first but did much better last time out at Warwick, finishing second over 3m5f so stamina not an issue.
NO. 44 | JOCKEY: UNKNOWN | FORM: 2RP-B2 | WEIGHT: 10-04 | AGE: 7 | TRAINER: W. MULLINS
Was entered and given top weight last year but was withdrawn so will he get a chance in the 2023 Grand National? Won the Savills Chase last time out and looks like he’s heading to Cheltenham first.
NO. 3 | JOCKEY: UNKNOWN | FORM: 1F2-31 | WEIGHT: 11-12 | AGE: 9 | TRAINER: G ELLIOTT
Went off as one of the race favourites in 2021 and 2022 but was pipped to the post both times. Could go well again in 2023.
NO. 2 | JOCKEY: UNKNOWN | FORM: 612-24 | WEIGHT: 11-12 | AGE: 11 | TRAINER: T WALSH
Was third in the Grand National last season and was back with a bang winning at Punchestown in November before placing 3rd at Cheltenham in January 2023.
NO. 11 | JOCKEY: UNKNOWN | FORM: 613-13 | WEIGHT: 11-04 | AGE: 10 | TRAINER: G. ELLIOTT
There’s a reason Galvin was handed near top-weight, he is an exceptional chaser and Gold Cup contender though form this season has been less than ideal. Also has options in the Irish Grand National.
NO. 5 | JOCKEY: UNKNOWN | FORM: 4-6146 | WEIGHT: 11-11 | AGE: 9 | TRAINER: G. ELLIOTT
Finished 6th in this race last season so can definitely get around the course and navigate the tricky obstacles, can he do better in 2023?
NO. 18 | JOCKEY: UNKNOWN | FORM: 76-P16 | WEIGHT: 11-00 | AGE: 9 | TRAINER: M BRASSIL
With nine chase starts and eight places, this is a horse to keep in mind for an each way chance. A handy 3-miler, let’s hope he has the stamina to go the full distance.
NO. 23 | JOCKEY: UNKNOWN | FORM: 114-11 | WEIGHT: 10-11 | AGE: 8 | TRAINER: D. SKELTON
