Frequently Asked Questions
What do the odds in horse racing mean?
Odds are the return you can expect to get if the horse you bet on is successful. It reflects the amount of money bet on a horse; the more money that is invested, the shorter the odds. When horse racing odds are shown in the form of 7-2, 5-1, etc, it expresses the amount of profit to the amount invested.
What horse is favourite to win the Grand National?
The favourite to win the Grand National changes throughout the course of the year, mainly due to performances at other racetracks. The ante-post market is available all year round, but tends to take more shape once the list of Grand National entries is published in late-January. Major races that may affect the betting include the Becher Chase at Aintree in December, the Grand National Trial at Haydock in February, and the Grand National Gold Cup in March.
What are the odds on the Grand National?
The average odds of a winning Grand National horse are around 20/1 – while 25 of the last 30 Grand National winners returned a double-figure price. Seven winners had a minimum of four runs before going on to win the Aintree Grand National. The only three who had less in recent years were Ballabriggs in 2011, One For Arthur in 2017 and Tiger Roll in 2019 with only 3 runs each.
Odds of a horse with more than 11 stone winning?
Until recently, it was commonly assumed that horses carrying over 11 stone never win. This allowed punters to rule out a decent slice of the entrants. However, this trend is showing signs of reversal in recent years. Not least in 2015 when Many Clouds carried the monster weight of 11st 9lb to victory, while since 2009 we’ve had six Grand National winners carry 11st or more in weight.
Which bookies give the best odds on the Grand National?
Famous bookies such as William Hill, Paddy Power, Betfair and bet365 are just a small sample of the big bookmakers that punters will look to at the time of the Grand National and you can’t go wrong with one of these respected firms. Nearer the time these bookmakers will have dedicated 2025 Grand National offers, so it’s important to keep an eye out. Also you can take advantage of Grand National Free Bets on our Free Bets page. Ultimately, the experience of placing a Grand National bet online is exactly the same, no matter the bookmaker.
Do the bookmakers want the Grand National favourites to win?
Bookmakers don’t like to take lots of bets on one horse, because if that horse wins the bookmaker will lose money. The bookmaker will offer more attractive (bigger) odds on other horses in an effort to get people to back those instead. Sometimes this actually works in favour of the punter as with The Grand National, only a few favourites have ever won. Ultimately, all bookmakers will aim to make a profit regardless of the outcome of the race and that’s why you will see the odds fluctuating right until the horses start racing.
Do the favourites always win The Grand National?
The appeal, for many people, is that the Grand National has produced winners from non-favourites. Some of these unlikely winners have returned odds of 100/1 notably Mon Mome in 2009 and famously Foinavon back in 1967. In the last 100 hundred years only 11 favourites have won the Grand National. Six of them have come since 1996: Tiger Roll (2019), Don’t Push It (2010), Comply Or Die (2008), Hedgehunter (2005), Earth Summit (1998) and Rough Quest in 1996.
What betting markets are available for the Grand National?
In addition to picking a winner or having an each-way bet on any particular horse, there are many other special markets that bookmakers will offer punters. These other forms of Grand National betting can be called "fun" or "special bets" and bookmakers will give different odds for these. Below is a list of some other forms of betting you can do for the Grand National: - How many horses will finish the race - Odds on all horses to jump the first fence - Odds on UK or Irish trained winner The amount of special bets can differ with each bookmaker.
