GRAND NATIONAL ANORAK - 2 

Welcome to the second of the new- look Grand National Anorak sites which covers the period between from 1990. Three decades of tumultuous changes to the race that most of us love so much. 1990 started with hitherto unthinkable changes to the National course and by the end of this period we were enjoying a race that in reality bears no resemblance to what went before. False starts, bomb scares, AP McCoy, animal welfare, run-off zones, Many Clouds, new-look fences, a dual winner.....and now sodding course invasions. It had it all really.

​

These pages are a continuation of the Grand National Anorak site which can be found at www.grandnationalanorak.com. This site comprises parts of the original Grand National Anorak site which until recently could be found on the Freewebs platform and also the Grand Nationals of the Nineties and Noughties sites which have now been removed.

​

As with my other sites this is an ecclectic, sideways glance at the race that has obsessed me since childhood.

​

I will continue this for a bit longer (I have added a page to cover 2021-23 and will probably continue until 2025 which will hopefully be my fiftieth National). This may be my last site - not sure I need to go on.

​

I will add the biographies for all horses who raced in the National from 2010 onwards - at some time......unlikely to be until 2024 at the earliest - it's hard work)

​

Please feel free to contact me with all your Grand National queries. I am rubbish at replying but will do eventually - all questions to Becher1234@yahoo.co.uk
