The entire country pauses to witness one of the most renowned races in the world, the Grand National. But how can you lower the number of runners in the Grand National? Thirty-four, the new, smaller field size, are ready to take their chances.

A random generator or a person's name, silk color, lucky number, or sweepstakes entry may be used by some to select their runners.

You can narrow down the runners with the aid of these important patterns. Would these useful statistics be able to assist you in selecting a Grand National winner?

Grand National Key Trends

Age

• Since 1950, the race has only been won by one seven-year-old. The best record is held by horses who are 8 to 11 years old.
• In the past ten renewals, eight-year-olds have prevailed four times.

Weight

• Less than 11 stone was carried by eight of the previous ten champions.
• Since 1950, only 29% of winners have weighed 11 stone or more.

Price

There isn't much of a track record for favorites in this race; only five have prevailed since 2000.
Don't let a high cost deter you. Ten winners in a row have five times been sent off at 25/1 or higher. Returning to 2000, that figure rises to eight.
Huge shocks are also possible. In 2009, Mon Mome made a triumphant return to the winners' enclosure as a 100/1 favorite, and in 2013, Auroras Encore achieved success at 66/1. Noble Yeats, the winner in 2022, was a 50/1 favorite.
