The last horses standing at the Grand National
The grand national is always full to capacity of horses ready to take the plunge on the most dangerous course in the world. Second time round the grand nationalrunners by-pass the Chair and Water jumps and head for the winning line via the sharp turn known as the elbow. Those still standing may have survived the fences but the 494 yard run in from the final fence to the winning post has seen races won and lost as the horses tire. An exciting finish to the Worlds most famous horse race is inevitable, and expected part of the day for the people at Aintree.
