Bookies favourite Corach Rambler wins 2023 Grand National following disrupted start

Corach Rambler continued his fine run of form to win the 2023 Randox Grand National after protestors disrupted the start and forced a 12 minute delay.

Nine people were arrested at Aintree after 15 Animal Rising demonstrators breached the racecourse, with at least two people affixing themselves to a jump using glue and lock-on devices.

The race lasted around ten minutes and Corach Rambler, the 8/1 favourite, stayed strongest to come home and win the world’s biggest steeplechase and horse racing’s most valuable prize.

Trainer Lucinda Russell picked up a second win in the Grand National following One For Arthur in 2017, who was also ridden by Derek Fox to join Davy Russell and Leighton Aspell as recent two-time winners of the Merseyside Marathon.

Animal Rising said that several horses fell during the race, which is what their protest had been trying to stop.

“Today marks not the end, but the beginning, of the summer of Animal Rising,” spokesperson Orla Coghlan said.

“We will be defending animals and nature and creating an un-ignorable national conversation about our relationship to animals and the natural world.”
