Noble Yeats has won the Grand National 2022.
40 horses competed for the top prize at Aintree today in what was the 174th running of the world famous race. It is the first time in two years it has taken place without any severe coronavirus restrictions. Last year, the Grand National had to take place as a virtual race with a computer-simulated replica of the world-famous Aintree track and was outright cancelled the year before.
The day was sold out for its return today, though, with 70,000 punters on the course for when the Grand National race got underway at 5.15pm. Any Second Now was favourite at 15-2, followed by Run Wild Fred at 8-1 and Minella Times at 9-1.
