The 2021 Randox Grand National: What the beaten jockeys and trainers said Sat 10 Apr 2021 From hard-luck stories to great spins that were cut short, read what the beaten riders had to say after the Aintree spectacular on Saturday. Aidan Coleman, Balko Des Flos (2nd) “I couldn’t be happier with him. He was super. He jumped brilliantly and travelled into it really well. He did everything right but just didn’t win. All credit to him.” Mark Walsh, Any Second Now (3rd) “He was very unlucky, he very nearly got brought down at the third last and he’s done great to finish third.”
Mike Bushell, BBC Breakfast reporter, eighth in 2019 Strictly Come Dancing I m giving an each-way shout for Sub Lieutenant to show his 100-1 odds are too big. He has never fallen, possesses great stamina and both the horse and Tabitha Worsley fared well separately over the National fences two years ago. When the family bought him off Michael O Leary he joked: One day he will win the National. There s an omen! Conor McGinn MP, shadow minister of state for security It s Anibale Fly for me. He has coped well on his two Grand National outings and looks favourably handicapped. Alice Plunkett, ITV Racing

Classiest Grand National field of all time ready for a fast and furious show By Andy Stephens@StevoGG Fri 9 Apr 2021 Forty horses. Forty jockeys. Thirty fences dressed in spruce. The Randox Grand National is always one of the great spectacles of the sporting year and the world’s most famous race will be watched by an estimated a global audience of 600 million on Saturday. Casual viewers turning in for their once-a-year fix might not notice, but modifications mean the showpiece is not the contest it once was.

Only three horeses fell in the latest renewal, which must constitute a record and suggests the tinkering has brought benefits.
