Grand National past winners: Last year's results, plus the all-time list

Corach Rambler added his name to the list of the world's greatest steeplechasers at Aintree last April

The Grand National has a knack for turning up a winner with an entertaining backstory and did so again when Corach Rambler took the title in 2023. In finishing first, the 8-1 favourite turned 21-year-old Cameron Sword into the youngest winning owner in the race’s long history

The year before, in 2022, Sam Waley-Cohen, an amateur jockey, announced that the Grand National would be the last race of his career – and then won it aboard 50-1 outsider Noble Yeats. In 2021, Rachael Blackmore became the first woman to ride the winner of the Grand National when she took charge of Minella Times

The question now is who will win the 2024 edition. You can read our complete guide to this year’s race
