Grand National 2023 Odds
Aintree Grand National | Saturday 15th April 2023
MINELLA TIMES
Ran straight into the history books in 2021 when winning the Grand National with Rachael Blackmore on board. As a result, Minella Times will have to carry over a stone more than last time. Making it unlikely we’ll see a repeat performance in 2022.
NO. 1 | JOCKEY: R. BLACKMORE | FORM: 221-FP | WEIGHT: 11-10 | AGE: 9 | TRAINER: H DE BROMHEAD
10/1

ANY SECOND NOW
Went off as one of the race favourites in 2021 and had a great race under jockey Mark Walsh, finishing third. Could go well again but he’ll be carrying more weight this year.
NO. 4 | JOCKEY: M WALSH | FORM: 13-961 | WEIGHT: 11-08 | AGE: 10 | TRAINER: T WALSH
10/1

FIDDLERONTHEROOF
Has a great record, from 10 starts over fences, has won two and placed in eight. Has a really good chance of running a solid race.
NO. 11 | JOCKEY: B POWELL | FORM: 23-122 | WEIGHT: 11-04 | AGE: 8 | TRAINER: C TIZZARD
11/1

SNOW LEOPARDESS
Winner of the Becher Chase in 2021, so we know she likes those Grand National fences. However, but being a grey horse and a mare means the historical trends are against her. Nevertheless, one of the more interesting options in the race and she’s more than capable of pouncing at Aintree.
NO. 31 | JOCKEY: A. COLEMAN | FORM: 46-111 | WEIGHT: 10-09 | AGE: 10 | TRAINER: C. LONGSDON

LONGHOUSE POET
Lightly chased but does seem to do better in the longer distanced races. A good weight and has never fallen, pulled-up or unseated his jockey.
NO. 10 | JOCKEY: D. O’KEEFFE | FORM: 31-717 | WEIGHT: 11-04 | AGE: 8 | TRAINER: M BRASSIL
12/1

ECLAIR SURF
Is having a great season and is proven over the distance of the National, has a solid each-way chance but has to make the cut first.
NO. 39 | JOCKEY: T. BELLAMY | FORM: 8-F312 | WEIGHT: 10-06 | AGE: 8 | TRAINER: E LAVELLE
12/1
Check out the latest Grand National promotions from leading bookies.
DELTA WORK
A decent chaser who beat Tiger Roll to the post in the Glenfarclas Chase at Cheltenham, disappointing many racing fans. However, he’ll have the crowd behind him at Aintree.
NO. 2 | JOCKEY: JACK KENNEDY | FORM: 3-4661 | WEIGHT: 11-09 | AGE: 9 | TRAINER: G. ELLIOTT
14/1

RUN WILD FRED
Finished the season last year with a second place finish in the Irish Grand National. The kind of horse that goes better on heavy ground. May need a bit of rain to take his chances.
NO. 5 | JOCKEY: DAVY RUSSELL | FORM: 2-2122 | WEIGHT: 11-07 | AGE: 8 | TRAINER: G. ELLIOTT
14/1

ENJOY D’ALLEN
From 10 chase starts, has won twice and placed eight times, so definitely a consideration for an each-way bet.
NO. 23 | JOCKEY: CONOR ORR | FORM: 23-735 | WEIGHT: 10-11 | AGE: 8 | TRAINER: C. MURPHY
14/1
Check out the latest Grand National promotions from leading bookies.
ESCARIA TEN
He had a shot at the Irish National last year but never looked like getting involved and was pulled up. Was narrowly beaten by Any Second Now in the Bobby Chase in February. Definitely worthy of consideration.
NO. 15 | JOCKEY: AP HESKIN | FORM: 23P-82 | WEIGHT: 11-01 | AGE: 8 | TRAINER: G. ELLIOTT
20/1
Check out the latest Grand National promotions from leading bookies.
COMMODORE
One of just three grey runners that will run in the Grand National 2022 and after a long break returned to racing this season, winning at Cheltenham in December. Is that one race enough prep for Aintree?
NO. 33 | JOCKEY: C DEUTSCH | FORM: 2U9P-1 | WEIGHT: 10-05 | AGE: 10 | TRAINER: V WILLIAMS
20/1
Check out the latest Grand National promotions from leading bookies.
FORTESCUE
Just made the cut to run in the Grand National 2022 and has enough class to warrant a second look given his win last time out at Ascot.
NO. 40 | JOCKEY: H. NUGENT | FORM: -37231 | WEIGHT: 10-06 | AGE: 8 | TRAINER: H DALY

SCHOOL BOY HOURS
From 10 chase starts, has won twice and placed eight times, so definitely a consideration for an each-way bet.
NO. 3 | JOCKEY: S FLANAGAN | FORM: 43-61P | WEIGHT: 10-05 | AGE: 9 | TRAINER: N MEADE
25/1
Check out the latest Grand National promotions from leading bookies.
BURROWS SAINT
He was a firm favourite in 2021 and despite a great race didn’t have it in the tank to challenge Minella Times and finished in 4th place. Another runner who could reward each way backers.
NO. 8 | JOCKEY: P TOWNEND | FORM: 24-323 | WEIGHT: 11-05 | AGE: 9 | TRAINER: W MULLINS
25/1
Check out the latest Grand National promotions from leading bookies.
GOOD BOY BOBBY
Plenty of boxes ticked with this horse – right age, weight, never fallen, unseated or pulled-up however, has very little experience beyond three miles so the distance is a big question mark.
NO. 16 | JOCKEY: D. JACOB | FORM: -31217 | WEIGHT: 10-13 | AGE: 9 | TRAINER: N TWISTON-DAVIES
25/1

CLOTH CAP
Winner of the Ladbrokes Trophy Chase in November 2020, Cloth Cap was a very exciting prospect and went off as the 2021 favourite. However, he didn’t finish the race and pulled up at the 28th fence. Will he do better in 2022?
NO. 30 | JOCKEY: T SCUDAMORE | FORM: P-46R3 | WEIGHT: 10-10 | AGE: 10 | TRAINER: J O’NEILL
25/1
Check out the latest Grand National promotions from leading bookies.
MIGHTY THUNDER
A long distance chaser who won the Scottish National last season. Form has dipped since, but if he finds his groove on the day he could threaten.
NO. 29 | JOCKEY: DEREK FOX | FORM: 21-4PP | WEIGHT: 10-10 | AGE: 9 | TRAINER: L RUSSELL
28/1
Check out the latest Grand National promotions from leading bookies.
DISCORAMA
Finished in 7th place in this race last year but has only run twice this season. If he is back on form he could do even better this year.
NO. 21 | JOCKEY: BJ COOPER | FORM: 257-52 | WEIGHT: 10-11 | AGE: 9 | TRAINER: P NOLAN
33/1
Check out the latest Grand National promotions from leading bookies.
DEATH DUTY
In February, he won the Grand National Trial Handicap Chase at Punchestown and finished sixth in the Ultima at Cheltenham. If he is on his game, it would not surprise me if he placed.
NO. 37 | JOCKEY: J. GAINFORD | FORM: 6-5716 | WEIGHT: 10-07 | AGE: 11 | TRAINER: G ELLIOTT
33/1
Check out the latest Grand National promotions from leading bookies.
TWO FOR GOLD
A handy chaser that has been notching up the wins over the last couple of seasons but largely at 3 miles. Does he have the legs for the marathon Aintree course?
NO. 12 | JOCKEY: D. BASS | FORM: 3U-112 | WEIGHT: 11-03 | AGE: 9 | TRAINER: K BAILEY
40/1

TOP VILLE BEN
Top Ville Ben appeared to take to the famous fences in the Becher Chase at Aintree in December before making a terrible error. An error free round is required now.
NO. 22 | JOCKEY: T DOWSON | FORM: P5F312 | WEIGHT: 10-11 | AGE: 10 | TRAINER: P KIRBY
40/1
Check out the latest Grand National promotions from leading bookies.
DINGO DOLLAR
Was second in the Scottish Grand National last year and has done ok this season. Will carry less weight than his recent runs so that will help boost his chances.
NO. 25 | JOCKEY: R. MANIA | FORM: 12-435 | WEIGHT: 10-11 | AGE: 10 | TRAINER: S THOMSON
40/1
Check out the latest Grand National promotions from leading bookies.
LOSTINTRANSLATION
Was third in the Gold Cup in 2020 but has never quite regained that kind of great form. The distance will be the biggest test and the weight of 11-06 won’t help his cause much either.
NO. 6 | JOCKEY: H. COBDEN | FORM: P-15P8 | WEIGHT: 11-06 | AGE: 10 | TRAINER: C TIZZARD
50/1
Check out the latest Grand National promotions from leading bookies.
SANTINI
Definitely a Cheltenham horse and one that has run in the Gold Cup multiple times. However, his form has dipped in the past couple of seasons. If he can find his mojo at Aintree, he’d be in with chance.
NO. 13 | JOCKEY: N SCHOLFIELD | FORM: 3P-428 | WEIGHT: 11-02 | AGE: 10 | TRAINER: P GUNDRY
50/1
Check out the latest Grand National promotions from leading bookies.
FREEWHEELIN DYLAN
Stunned everybody when he romped home as the 150/1 winner of the Irish Grand National in 2021. But was it a fluke? or can he add the Grand National to his tally?
NO. 26 | JOCKEY: R DOYLE | FORM: 1-46UP | WEIGHT: 10-10 | AGE: 10 | TRAINER: D McLOUGHLIN
50/1
Check out the latest Grand National promotions from leading bookies.
MOUNT IDA
Stepped up to Grade 1 level at Cheltenham and was outclassed and generally runs at 2m5f so the distance may be a problem.
NO. 9 | JOCKEY: D. O’REGAN | FORM: 13-117 | WEIGHT: 11-05 | AGE: 8 | TRAINER: G ELLIOTT
66/1
Check out the latest Grand National promotions from leading bookies.
DE RASHER COUNTER
Was out of action for quite a while and only made his seasonal return in February, his first run since October 2020. His current form looks streaky however.
NO. 19 | JOCKEY: ADAM WEDGE | FORM: 4P/2-4 | WEIGHT: 10-12 | AGE: 10 | TRAINER: E LAVELLE
66/1
Check out the latest Grand National promotions from leading bookies.
KILDISART
Returned to Newbury on March 5th for his first race since November 2020. Is a very consistent horse that has never fallen, pulled up or unseated his rider. Distance may be an issue but he has previously won at Aintree.
NO. 20 | JOCKEY: J. BOWEN | FORM: 2/37-4 | WEIGHT: 10-11 | AGE: 10 | TRAINER: B PAULING
66/1

NOBLE YEATS
A young horse with one win under his belt and that was in a small race. Cannot see him causing any surprises on the day.
NO. 28 | JOCKEY: S. WALEY-COHEN | FORM: 469P29 | WEIGHT: 10-10 | AGE: 7 | TRAINER: E MULLINS
66/1

DEISE ABA
Running in the colours of the legendary Trevor Hemmings, Deise Aba is definitely worth consideration for a long shot each-way bet. Was second in the Pertemps at Aintree in November and has really stepped up in distance this season. If he can stay out of trouble he could place.
NO. 34 | JOCKEY: T. O’BRIEN | FORM: P-22P2 | WEIGHT: 10-08 | AGE: 9 | TRAINER: P HOBBS
66/1
Check out the latest Grand National promotions from leading bookies.
BLAKLION
The veteran has shown there is still plenty of fire left in his belly with two impressive victories at Haydock this season. He ran a huge race to finish a 50-1 sixth in last year’s National.
NO. 35 | JOCKEY: H. SKELTON | FORM: 6-511P | WEIGHT: 10-08 | AGE: 13 | TRAINER: D SKELTON
66/1
Check out the latest Grand National promotions from leading bookies.
SAMCRO
His level of form really doesn’t cut the mustard these days and he looks like a non-stayer on paper.
NO. 14 | JOCKEY: S. BOWEN | FORM: 602803 | WEIGHT: 11-01 | AGE: 10 | TRAINER: G ELLIOTT
80/1
Check out the latest Grand National promotions from leading bookies.
COKO BEACH
By Grand National standards, he’s a youngster, but has experience over longer distances, doesn’t have a win to show for it. Little chance of that changing in the National.
NO. 18 | JOCKEY: JONJO O’NEILL JR | FORM: 46P644 | WEIGHT: 10-13 | AGE: 7 | TRAINER: G ELLIOTT
80/1

ANIBALE FLY
Aiming to run in his fourth Grand National having placed 4th in 2018, 5th in 2019, 2020 was cancelled, pulled up in 2021 so can he make the places again in 2022 – could go either way!
NO. 24 | JOCKEY: L DEMPSEY | FORM: -39098 | WEIGHT: 10-11 | AGE: 12 | TRAINER: A MARTIN
80/1

POKER PARTY
Returned this season after nearly two years on the sidelines. Ran three races, and didn’t perform well in any of them, pulling up in the Glenfarclas Chase at Cheltenham. Just doesn’t have the form this season.
NO. 36 | JOCKEY: R POWER | FORM: 43/00P | WEIGHT: 10-08 | AGE: 10 | TRAINER: H DE BROMHEAD
80/1

AGUSTA GOLD
Funnily enough Agusta Gold is owned by Randox boss Dr Peter Fitzgerald. They couldn’t could they? Unlikely.
NO. 32 | JOCKEY: D MULLINS | FORM: 0-8PP2 | WEIGHT: 10-09 | AGE: 9 | TRAINER: W MULLINS
100/1
Check out the latest Grand National promotions from leading bookies.
BRAHMA BULL
Unseated his rider at Cheltenham in the Glenfarclas Chase but was enjoying a decent enough season otherwise. A possible dark horse.
NO. 7 | JOCKEY: B HAYES | FORM: 2333PU | WEIGHT: 11-06 | AGE: 11 | TRAINER: W MULLINS
100/1
Check out the latest Grand National promotions from leading bookies.
DOMAINE DE L’ISLE
A fourth place finisher in the Becher Chase in December, he has stamina but lacks pace, so he is often a distance behind the winner.
NO. 38 | JOCKEY: H BANNISTER | FORM: 1-P420 | WEIGHT: 10-07 | AGE: 9 | TRAINER: S CURRAN
125/1
Check out the latest Grand National promotions from leading bookies.
ROMAIN DE SENAM
Just made the line-up for the 2022 Grand National on the last day but has very little experience beyond 3m. Pulled up in March at Uttoxeter over 4m2f so stamina is questionable.
NO. 17 | JOCKEY: P ARMSON | FORM: B143-P | WEIGHT: 10-05 | AGE: 10 | TRAINER: D. PIPE

CLASS CONTI
Ran in last year’s Grand National and was the last finisher home in 15th place. Has done nothing this season to suggest he could have any kind of a chance here

UNDERSTANDING ODDS
What’s It All About
Odds are, in essence, a very simple representation of the amount of money returned on a winning bet, but they also signal a horses expected chances of winning.
However, as you can see from the odds at the top of this page, not all horses are priced at 40/1. This is because some horses in the race are known to be better than others and the really good horses attract lots of bets. Bookmakers don’t like to take lots of bets on one horse, because if that horse wins the bookmaker will lose money! So the bookmaker will offer more attractive (larger) odds on other horses in an effort to get people to back those instead.
The Bookie will always aim to make a profit regardless of the outcome of the race and that’s why you will see the odds fluctuating right until they’re off.
For many people, the appeal of the Grand National is down to the fact that longshots have won the race in the past. Winners have returned victorious at odds of 100/1 including Mon Mome in 2009 and famously Foinavon in 1967.
In 2013 Auroras Encore backers cheered when he powered to a nine-length victory at 66/1. The 2014 winner Pineau De Re was quoted at odds of 40/1 in the days leading up to the race but on the morning of the National his best odds shortened to 25/1. In fact, the average odds of the winning horse since 1990 have been around 20/1.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Do The Numbers In Odds Mean?
You’ll most often see odds displayed like this: 5/1, 10/1, 25/1 and all the way up to 100/1 and sometimes even higher. But what do these numbers represent?
In the examples above the first numbers: 5, 10, 25 and 100 represent the returned amount for a winning £1 bet. A winning £1 bet at 10/1 will return £10 plus you’ll also get your original £1 stake back.
Occasionally you’ll see short priced odds like this: 5/2 or 6/5 the numbers look different, but the principle is the same. For example 5/2 is another way of saying 2.5/1 if you bet £1 at 5/2 and your horse wins you’ll get £2.50 in return (plus your stake).
How Does Each Way Betting Affect Odds
When you back a horse eachway you’re betting it will finish in either 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th positions. (BETFAIR usually payout on eachway bets to 5 places in the Grand National – please check before betting.)
If you make a £10 Eachway bet the total cost will be £20, that’s because you’re actually making two bets with the bookmaker, one bet that the horse will finish 1st and another that it will place in either 2nd, 3rd or 4th position (and 5th with Betfair). Of course you can lower your stake to ‘£5 eachway’ and then the total cost of the bet will be reduced to just £10.
Lets say you’ve had a £10 eachway (£20 total cost) at odds of 10/1 and your horse romps home in first place – how much do you win? Well, you’ve got £10 @ 10/1 = £100, PLUS you also get 1/4th the quoted odds on the place part of the bet, which is £10 @ 2.5/1 = £25 giving you a total of £125 and don’t forget you also get your original £20 stake returned too.
Should your horse finish in either 2nd, 3rd or 4th position, known as a ‘place’ you will win £25 plus the £10 ‘place’ part of your original £20 stake will be returned. You might be wondering why you only get £25 back in winnings if the odds are 10/1 and your bet was £10, shouldn’t that be £100! Well no, the bookmakers only pay out a 1/4th of the quoted odds on horses that finish 2nd, 3rd or 4th and because your horse didn’t finish 1st you will lose the win portion of the original stake.
How Often Does The Favourite Win The National
In the last 100 hundred years only 12 favourites have actually won the Grand National. Six of them have come in the last 20 years notably: Tiger Roll (2019), Don’t Push It (2010), Comply Or Die (2008), Hedgehunter (2005), Earth Summit (1998) and Rough Quest in 1996.
Nearly all these horses have gone off at 7/1, except for Tiger Roll who went off at odds of 4/1, which on the face of it seems miserly odds for such a high-risk race.
Do Longshots Have A Real Chance
Five 100/1 winners have won the race in the last 100 years. Below you can see the odds of the winners since 2009
- 2009 Mon Mome 100/1
- 2010 Don’t Push It 10/1
- 2011 Ballabriggs 14/1
- 2012 Neptune Collonges 33/1
- 2013 Auroras Encore 66/1
- 2014 Pineau De Re 25/1
- 2015 Many Clouds 25/1
- 2016 Rule The World 33/1
- 2017 One For Arthur 14/1
- 2018 Tiger Roll 10/1
- 2019 Tiger Roll 4/1
- 2021 Minella Times 11/1
Where Can I Get The Best Odds
This is a tricky question to answer. It’s certainly worth shopping around for a price on a specific horse, especially if that horse is considered a longshot.
I often see horses priced a 40/1 with one bookmaker which can be backed at 66/1 or even 80/1 with another. At the other end of the market, the difference in odds is usually small.
It’s worth noting that promo offers and enhanced eachway place terms offered by some bookmakers could easily outweigh a small difference in odds.
Odds & Payout Table
| Odds | Stake | Win | Eachway (place) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5/1 | £5 | £30 | £11.25 |
| 8/1 | £5 | £45 | £15 |
| 10/1 | £5 | £55 | £17.50 |
| 16/1 | £5 | £85 | £25 |
| 20/1 | £5 | £105 | £30 |
| 25/1 | £5 | £130 | £36.25 |
| 33/1 | £5 | £170 | £46.25 |
| 40/1 | £5 | £205 | £40 |
| 66/1 | £5 | £335 | £87.50 |
| 80/1 | £5 | £405 | £105 |
| 100/1 | £5 | £505 | £130 |
Amounts shown in the table include returned stake. Eachway places assume 1/4 odds will be paid by the bookmakers and also include place portion of stake returned. If you back a horse eachway for £5 the total bet is £10 (£5 win & £5 place). If your eachway selections wins add the place amount and win amount together to get your total return.
