Many grand national winners have run over the course before winning the race, whether that has been in a previous grand national or in a race run over the grand national fences such as the Becher or the Topham.
Here we look at the stats and trends surrounding aintree grand national course form and identify the runners for this years race with the best aintree course form over the garnd national fences.
How Important is Aintree Course Form
Many recent grand national runners have previously run over the grand national course either in a past grand national, the becher or the topham.
2004 Grand National runner up Clan Royal WON the Topham in 2003
2003 Grand National winner Montys Pass finished 2nd in the Topham in 2002
2002 Grand National winner Bindaree finished 4th in the Topham in 2001
2004 Amberleigh House won the Grand National after finishing second in the Becher
There are some obvious reasons why this is the case. If it is the long term plan for a horse to have a go at the aintree national, a trainer will want to give that horse some experience of the fences before spending some time aiming the horse at the big race. The becher and topham are often used.
The other reason is a good run in the becher or topham may cause a trainer to then plan a horse for a bid at the grand national.
