O Grand National é uma prova de corrida de cavalos thoroughbred com obstáculos (steeplechase) que ocorre desde o século XIX em Aintree na Inglaterra.
É disputado numa distância de 4 milhas 514 jardas[1] (ou 6,907 km.) e durante a corrida existem trinta obstáculos (fences) para serem saltados.Ocorre uma vez por ano, no Aintree Racecourse .[2]
É o evento de National Hunt (certame de corridas com obstáculos) da Grã-Bretanha com a maior premiação, e em 2009 ofereceu um total de £900,000 em prémios.Os animais transportam pesos em regime de handicap (pesos diferentes conforme a categoria e idade).
Os cavalos, como em todas as modalidades de desportos equestres com saltos de obstáculos, já tem idade madura e em geral estão castrados (guelding), para prevenir traumatismos ao transpor as barreiras. Vence o cavalo que chegar na frente, com o jockey montado.
A corrida encontra popularidade entre muitas pessoas que normalmente não assistem ou apostam em corridas de cavalos em outras épocas do ano, que ocorrem ao evento motivadas pelas extremas exigencias aos competidores. Ela é também uma das mais controversas, devido as lesões e fatalidades sofridas pelos cavalos participantes. Isso faz dela um alvo de grupos que defendem os direitos dos animais, que já fizeram campanha para ela ser banida.[3][4] Em cento e sessenta e duas corridas, ocorreram cinquenta e oito mortes de cavalos, quatro delas no mesmo ano, 1954. Classificada como prova de Grupo III pelos critérios técnicos da Inglaterra.
Sábado, no começo de abril de cada ano.
O Grand National em Aintree foi instituido, conforme relatos oficiais em 1839, vencido por um cavalo de nome Lottery . Entretanto já haviam ocorrido tres edições esquecidas nos registros, as de 1836 e 1837 ganhos pelo cavalo The Duke e a de 1838 por Sir Williams. Naquela época a corrida era chamada Grand Liverpool Steeplechase, e os cavalos corriam na planície tendo que saltar sobre obstáculos que eram pequenos terraços, dois arroios e um muro de pedra.[5]

As edições de 1836 a 1838 não são reconhecidas como "Grand Nationals" por Aintree Racecourse. De 1916 a 1918 a corrida foi em Gatwick. Não houve Grand National entre 1941 e 1945 devido à Segunda Guerra Mundial. A corrida foi anulada em 1993, quando muitos concorrentes saíram correndo após uma falsa partida.
