Do horses enjoy the Grand National?

The Grand National: our response to the racing industry Animal Aid has, for many years, called for the Grand National to be banned. It is a deliberately hazardous race.

Following the deaths of two horses in the, which were accidentally screened on live television, there was a fresh outpouring of anger that this sick spectacle is allowed to continue.Since that time more horses have been killed in the race in the most horrific circumstances.Defenders of the race peddle a variety of myths in their attempts to justify it:

If the horses didn’t like it, they wouldn’t carry on running after their jockeys fall off Horses are herd animals. They feel safer when part of a group, especially in the noisy, often unfamiliar race day environment. The horses enjoy the challenge They are not equal to the challenge.

The modern industry concentrates on breeding lighter-boned, speedier animals for Flat racing. Less successful Flat racers, or those good at clearing fences, are consigned to jump racing. But, because they are fine-tuned for speed rather than skeletal strength, they risk fatal injury when they fall – a common occurrence at Aintree.

The horses are treated like kings Evidence suggests that, for many years, thousands of horses who don’t pay their way have been slaughtered or killed in their yards. Horses in the wild die too – death is natural There is nothing natural about whipping highly inbred horses to force them to run to their physical limit and jump a series of life-threatening obstacles.

• Because Aintree and the industry as a whole make a concerted effort to conceal news of equine fatalities, Animal Aid is making that information public.
• Our online database,, was established in March 2007 and lists horses who die on all of Britain’s 60 racecourses.
• It is this data that is now heavily relied upon by the media.

Our annual Horse Racing Awareness Week takes place in the seven days leading up to the country’s most famous race. We stage a series of high-profile media events to highlight the suffering involved in horse racing. Please get involved with our campaign to Ban the Grand National and Horse Racing Awareness Week.

Who died in the Aintree racecourse 2023?

Grand National 2023 death toll rises Posted on the 11th May 2023 A six-year-old race horse, named Hullnback, has become the fourth victim of the 2023 Grand National meeting, following news that the poor horse died of an infection caused by a racing injury sustained at Aintree Racecourse on 14 April. The other horses killed at the notorious three-day event were: Hill Sixteen, who suffered a broken neck at the first fence in the Grand National race; Dark Raven, who was killed earlier on the Saturday afternoon and Envoye Special, who lost his life on the first day of the meeting.

The news of Hullnback’s demise raises the at the Grand National meeting since 2000. Many more horses would have returned to their stables with injuries and trauma caused by being forced to compete at Aintree. Grand National deaths add to the shocking race horse fatality figure of more than 3,000 victims killed on British racecourses since 2001 – highlighting the endemic suffering at the heart of this brutal so called ‘sport’.

As a consequence, Animal Aid’s campaign to was launched in March 2023. This was to coincide with the big Jump Racing events of the year – the Cheltenham Festival and the Grand National. To date the campaign has featured bus adverts and a viral film, watched by more than half a million people, aimed at exposing the huge death toll that the racing industry is keen to keep under wraps.

Says Dene Stansall, Animal Aid’s Horse Racing Consultant: ‘The racing industry has a broken relationship with race horses. Horses are bred, used and disposed of within a money driven programme that maximises their exploitation with a ruthless thirst. Hullnback’s death embodies the pitiful state of an entire equine population in the hands of a self-serving industry.

As a consequence, racing is losing public support.’ For more information visit: and The Scottish Government has opened a short consultation on snares, and we are asking everyone to take a few minutes to fill it in. The consultation closes on 3rd October. Posted 08 Sep 2023 On 1 October, the pheasant shooting season will begin. The partridge shooting season is already under way.
