It’s almost here! The 2019 Grand National is just hours away and we now have the final field of 40-runners confirmed following Thursday’s 48-hour Grand National declarations.
Got your eye on favourite Tiger Roll? Don’t worry! He’s made it in comfortably alongside other market leaders including Rathvinden, Vintage Clouds, Anibale Fly and Lake View Lad.
Joe Farrell’s in too. He’s been the subject of a big gamble at Aintree after sneaking in alongside Just A Par following the late Grand National withdrawals of Mall Dini and Pairofbrowneyes after the 48-hour decs.
Plenty you might have had your eye on didn’t make the cut due to their weight. They include Carole’s Destrier and 2018 Grand National-fifth Milansbar, who was too far down the pecking order.
Not to worry. There are still 40-runners to choose from and if any of them drop out then The Young Master, Isleofhopendreams and Exitas are all on the reserve list and chomping at the bit to come in!
Got your selection sorted? Or still need a bit of help? We’ll have big race tips on the day of the race on our Grand National hub which contains all the need-to-know information you could want.
Then it all gets underway at 5:15pm on ITV on Saturday 6th April. So settle down with your Nan, your dog and whoever else is about for the pulsating 2019 renewal of the people’s race.
