<h2>Grand National Day</h2>
The final day of the Grand National is the highlight of the festival as it features the prestigious handicap race spread over four miles.
<h2>About the Grand National </h2>
The Grand National is a renowned and historic <a href="https://www.seatunique.com/sport-tickets/horse-racing">horse racing</a> event held annually in Liverpool, England. It is often considered the most challenging and prestigious horse race in the world. 
History
The Grand National has a rich history dating back to 1839 when it was first run at Aintree Racecourse. The race was initially created as a cross-country event, covering a distance of 4 miles and 856 yards, and it developed into the famous steeplechase it is today. Over the years, the course and race format have undergone several modifications to improve safety, but it retains its unique and challenging nature.
Success
The Grand National has achieved global recognition due to its unique character and unpredictable outcomes. It holds a significant place in British sporting culture and attracts millions of viewers both nationally and internationally. As one of the most-watched horse racing events, it captivates audiences with its thrilling spectacle and unpredictable nature.
Previous Winners
The Grand National has seen many exceptional horses win the race throughout its history. Some of the notable recent winners include:
<ul>
 <li>Tiger Roll: This extraordinary horse won the Grand National in 2018 and 2019, becoming the first horse to secure back-to-back victories since Red Rum in the 1970s. Tiger Roll's incredible success made it one of the most beloved horses in recent times.</li>
 <li>One for Arthur: This horse triumphed in 2017, giving Scotland its first Grand National winner since 1979. One for Arthur delivered an impressive display of stamina and jumping ability, captivating fans with its victory.</li>
 <li>Rule the World: In 2016, Rule the World emerged as the champion, ridden by jockey David Mullins. The horse, trained by Mouse Morris, captured the hearts of many with its unexpected triumph.</li>
</ul>
Course and Distance
The race takes place at Aintree Racecourse, which features a unique and challenging course. Horses are required to complete two circuits of the course, covering a distance of approximately 4 miles and 514 yards (6.907 km). The course is known for its famous obstacles, including 30 fences such as Becher's Brook, The Chair, and the Canal Turn, which test both the horse's jumping capability and the jockey's skill.
Participant Eligibility
The Grand National is an open race, meaning it is open to horses aged seven or older. However, the race is handicapped, which means that the weight each horse carries is determined by the official handicapper. The aim is to give all participants an equal chance of winning.
Famous Winners
The Grand National has had several legendary champions throughout history. One of the most iconic horses associated with the race is Red Rum. This incredible horse won the Grand National three times (in 1973, 1974, and 1977) and finished in second place in two other years (1975 and 1976). Red Rum's amazing achievements made it one of the greatest racehorses of all time.
Another notable winner is Aldaniti, who triumphed in 1981. The horse had overcome a career-threatening injury and was partnered with jockey Bob Champion, who himself had successfully battled against cancer. Their victory was an inspirational story that captured the imagination of the public.
Safety Measures
In recent years, the race organizers have implemented significant safety improvements to ensure the welfare of both horses and jockeys. Changes have been made to the fences, including modifications to reduce their size and make them more forgiving. Safety measures such as frangible technology have also been introduced, which allows the fences to break apart upon impact.
The Grand National continues to be one of the most thrilling and enduring events in the world of horse racing. Its combination of history, challenge, and unpredictable nature ensures that it remains a highlight of the sporting calendar.
