Grand National 2023 LIVE: Full results from Aintree

Corach Rambler became the winner of the Grand National 2023 at Aintree as the 8/1 favourite. The nine-year-old horse won the race after taking the lead and kicking for home over the final fence, finishing ahead of Vanillier and Gaillard Du Mesnil, who stood second and third, respectively. The Grand National was delayed by around 15 minutes owing to animal rights protestors getting onto the track. Chaos ensued early on, and several horses fell, including Lifetime Ambition, taken out by a loose horse at fence 9. The race attracted criticism from animal rights protestors before the Grand National, and nine individuals were arrested, including three in connection with possible coordinated disruption activities at Aintree.
