With the Grand National fast approaching it’s interesting to look back at where the runners ended in the past. Though the line up changes every year, many horses are entered multiple times e.g. Hedgehunter. Although in 2012, there definitely will not be any horses who ran in 2006, it’s good to brush up on past results to help you choose a winner for this year!
