Grand National Betting - Aintree Free Bets

The best known Horse Race in the world is the Aintree Grand National, which has been around since 1839. The first Grand National at Aintree was won by a horse with the unlikely name of Lottery, who’s name seemed to set the precedent for the race as it is often regarded as a lottery when it comes to selecting the winner each year.

2010 Grand National

The 2010 Grand National promises to be one of the best in recent years with many Graded winners amongst the latest declarations. The weights are in fact headed by three top quality stayers, who will all carry 11-12; they are Albertas Run, runner up in the 2008 King George Chase, Madison Du Berlais, runner up in the 2009 King George Chase and Notre Pere, winner of the 2008 Welsh National

Race favourite, Tricky Trickster will carry a very handy weight of 11-4, which is the same weight as the nearest to him in the betting, Niche Market. These two fought out a fantastic finish in the Aon Chase at Newbury in February which Tricky Trickster won by a neck.

There are three past winners in the race, which are 2009 winner, Mon Mome (11-7), 2008 winner, Comply Or Die (11-5) and Silver Birch (10-5) who won in 2007, but he will need one or two to drop out before he makes the final 40.

Grand National - General

There have been many great stories that seem to go hand in hand with the Grand National, many of which have made legends out of the horse, the trainer or the jockey. Probably the greatest legend of all at Aintree is the great Red Rum who won the race three times in the 70s and was second a further twice.

See Latest 2010 Grand National Betting

Each April virtually the entire nation in the UK stops to watch the thrills and spills of 40 Grand National runners take on the equine marathon of 4½ miles with 30 difficult fences to negotiate, including the dreaded Bechers Brook. Winners of the race not only have to be able to stay the difficult trip they must be able to jump consistently well and be ridden by jockeys who know how to keep out of trouble.

In fact each year the Bookies offer odds on how many of the runners will finish the race as well as creating several other fun markets where punters can make a little bit of money out of the race.

To assist in selecting the winner of the race we have a dedicated site Grand National Betting Site where the latest Grand National form, Grand National results, Grand National tips and Grand National odds, are all freely available and well worth a small amount of study time.

As this is such a special race the online bookmakers all of which are reviewed right here on this site will offer excellent Grand National Free Betting Offers which we have negotiated on behalf of our visitors, these are available simpoly by clicking on the appropriate Bookmaker links on this site.

2010 Grand National Micro Site

The most famous steeplechase of them all of course is the Grand National which is raced at the Aintree racecourse in Liverpool. This is probably the most famous race in the world and attracts the single biggest market of all races in the UK.

The race has produced many legends down the years, none more so than the great Red Rum who is the only horse to have won the race three times. He won in 1973, 1974 and 1977 and was second both times in the intervening years.

Last year’s winner, Mon Mome was the first 100/1 winner of the race since Foinavon won in 1967 both of which provided huge wins for the Bookmakers and big disappointments for the millions of punters who had their annual bet on the race.
