Aintree Horse Racing
Aintree - About The Course
All eyes turn to Aintree in the Spring for the greatest race in the world - the Grand National
Few horses have the stamina to gallop four and a half miles and the ability to jump 30 steeplechase femces including the mighty Chair and hell raising Canal Turn. Following recent modifications, Becher's Brook is no longer the daunting fance as of old
Red Rum's incredible three wins in the contest proved beyond all doubt the old "horses for courses" adage. No single stable has a stanglehold on the race, but the fancied horses have an excellent record have an excellent record in recent years. Stick with the first 6 favourites in the betting, and success should come your way
The majority of other steeplechases are run on the much less testing Mildmay course, whoose fenses are not nearly so stiff. The left handed hurdle course is a level sharp and fast track, where races are normally run at a helter-skelter pace
The Irish love to raid aintree. They enjoy nothing more than launching huge on-course gambles, often allowing other well fancied contenders to start at attractive odds
