| Betting on the Number of Finishers in the Grand National |
|---|
Outside of trying to pick the winner of the Grand National another very interesting Grand National Bet is trying to come up with the number of Grand National finishers. As everyone knows the gruelling four and a half miles and the 30 fences take their toll on the maximum field of 40 and every year almost half the field does not complete for one reason or another. A number of the field will not complete as they will fall or the jockeys will be unseated from their horse. Then there are the unlucky ones who are brought down by other horses. Then there are the ones who are just too tired to carry on and complete the course.
Number of Finishers Grand National Tips from our editorial team are that you should take a large consideration on what the ground conditions are on the day of the race. Should the ground be soft then you should consider the number of finishers in the region of 10- 14, should the conditions be heavy then look at 7-11. On good ground there will usually be 18-22 finishers. As you can see the conditions on the day will determine how many will finish the course as it makes sense that the bigger the slog around the course this will impact the number of finishers. Of course you do get an event such as in 1967 when nearly all the runners fell or where brought down at the 23rd fence except for Foinavon the 100/1 shot who managed to scramble over the fence and go on to win the race the Aintree executive named the fence in honour of the horse, in that year only a couple finished.
