2017 Grand National - wikipedia 2017 Grand National 2017 Grand National Grand National Location Aintree Racecourse Date 8 April 2017 Winning horse One For Arthur Starting price 1014 14 / 1 Jockey Derek Fox Trainer Lucinda Russell Owner Two Golf Widows Conditions Good to soft ← 2016 2018 → The 2017 Grand National ( officially known as the 2017 Randox Health Grand National for sponsorship reasons ) was the 170th official running of the Grand National horse race at Aintree Racecourse near Liverpool, England. The showpiece steeplechase over a distance of 4 miles 514 yards ( 6.907 km ) took place on 8 April 2017, the final day of a three - day meeting. A maximum field of 40 runners competed for a share of a prize fund of £ 1 million. Randox Health is the new sponsor of the main race and the festival itself for the next five years. It was broadcast live on television by ITV for the first time. There was live radio coverage by BBC Radio, which has held the radio rights since 1927, and by Talksport, which covered the main race live for the fourth time. The race was won by One For Arthur, only the second horse trained in Scotland to win the Grand National ( the other being Rubstic in 1979 ). One For Arthur was ridden by Derek Fox and trained by Lucinda Russell, and was sent off at odds of 1014 14 / 1.

Among the early favourites were Don Poli, who won three Grade 1 races in the 2015 -- 16 season, and 2016 National runner - up The Last Samuri. The 2015 winner, Many Clouds, who was also among the ante - post favourites, died of a pulmonary haemorrhage shortly before the entries were announced. The weights were announced on 14 February and headed by Lexus Chase winner Outlander, however, trainer Gordon Elliott indicated that he would not run. The top five weighted horses were all Irish - trained, including three by Elliott. One runner ( Otago Trail ) was scratched before the weights were assigned. Ninety - five entries remained after the first scratching deadline on 28 February. Elliott, who had earlier expressed his dissatisfaction with the weights assigned to his horses, withdrew several of his entries, including Outlander, Empire of Dirt and Don Poli, leaving Carlingford Lough as the new top weight. Vieux Lion Rouge, who won the Grand National Trial at Haydock, was now the favourite with the bookmakers, at 12 / 1. The field was reduced to 79 following the second scratching deadline on 21 March. The five - day confirmation process began on 3 April with 70 horses advancing, following the withdrawal of top - weight Carlingford Lough. The final field was announced on 6 April, including four reserves in case of any withdrawals before 1 pm on 7 April. One of the top 40 horses going into the confirmation stage ( Pendra ) withdrew. There were no further withdrawals before the deadline, leaving the following 40 starters : No Horse Age Handicap ( st -- lb ) SP Jockey Trainer The Last Samuri ( IRE ) 9 11 - 10 1016 16 / 1 David Bass Kim Bailey More Of That ( IRE ) 9 11 - 06 1016 16 / 1 Barry Geraghty Jonjo O'Neill Shantou Flyer ( IRE ) 7 11 - 05 1050 50 / 1 Jonathan Moore Rebecca Curtis Perfect Candidate ( IRE ) 10 11 - 05 1033 33 / 1 Paddy Brennan Fergal O'Brien 5 Saphir Du Rheu ( FR ) 8 11 - 05 1016 16 / 1 Sam Twiston - Davies Paul Nicholls 6 Roi Des Francs ( FR ) 8 11 - 03 1050 50 / 1 Jack Kennedy Gordon Elliott ( IRE ) 7 Wounded Warrior ( IRE ) 8 11 - 02 1033 33 / 1 Sean Flanagan Noel Meade ( IRE ) 8 Wonderful Charm ( FR ) 9 11 - 02 1028 28 / 1 Ms Katie Walsh Paul Nicholls 9 Tenor Nivernais ( FR ) 10 11 - 01 1040 40 / 1 Aidan Coleman Venetia Williams 10 Blaklion 8 11 - 01 1008 8 / 1 F Noel Fehily Nigel Twiston - Davies 11 Drop Out Joe 9 11 - 01 1033 33 / 1 Tom O'Brien Charlie Longsdon 12 Le Mercurey ( FR ) 7 11 - 00 1050 50 / 1 Sean Bowen Paul Nicholls 13 The Young Master 8 10 -- 13 1020 20 / 1 Mr Sam Waley - Cohen Neil Mulholland 14 Cause of Causes ( USA ) 9 10 -- 13 1016 16 / 1 Mr Jamie Codd Gordon Elliott ( IRE ) 15 Regal Encore ( IRE ) 9 10 -- 13 1033 33 / 1 Robbie Power Anthony Honeyball 16 Vieux Lion Rouge ( FR ) 8 10 -- 12 1012 12 / 1 Tom Scudamore David Pipe 17 Definitly Red ( IRE ) 8 10 -- 12 1010 10 / 1 Danny Cook Brian Ellison 18 Ucello Conti ( FR ) 9 10 -- 12 1020 20 / 1 Daryl Jacob Gordon Elliott ( IRE ) 19 Double Shuffle ( IRE ) 7 10 -- 12 1033 33 / 1 Adrian Heskin Tom George 20 Houblon Des Obeaux ( FR ) 10 10 -- 12 1050 50 / 1 Charlie Deutsch Venetia Williams 21 Pleasant Company ( IRE ) 9 10 -- 12 1011 11 / 1 Ruby Walsh Willie Mullins ( IRE ) 22 One For Arthur ( IRE ) 8 10 -- 11 1014 14 / 1 Derek Fox Lucinda Russell 23 Ballynagour ( IRE ) 11 10 -- 11 1066 66 / 1 David Noonan David Pipe 24 O'Faolains Boy ( IRE ) 10 10 -- 11 1050 50 / 1 Paul Townend Rebecca Curtis 25 Highland Lodge ( IRE ) 11 10 -- 11 1025 25 / 1 Henry Brooke James Moffatt 26 Bishops Road ( IRE ) 9 10 - 10 1066 66 / 1 Jamie Moore Kerry Lee 27 Lord Windermere ( IRE ) 11 10 - 10 1033 33 / 1 Leighton Aspell Jim Culloty ( IRE ) 28 Saint Are ( FR ) 11 10 - 10 1025 25 / 1 Davy Russell Tom George 29 Vicente ( FR ) 8 10 - 10 1016 16 / 1 Brian Hughes Paul Nicholls 30 Just A Par ( IRE ) 10 10 - 09 1033 33 / 1 Harry Cobden Paul Nicholls 31 Measureofmydreams ( IRE ) 9 10 - 09 1040 40 / 1 Donagh Meyler Noel Meade ( IRE ) 32 Raz de Maree ( FR ) 12 10 - 09 1033 33 / 1 Ger Fox Gavin Cromwell ( IRE ) 33 Stellar Notion ( IRE ) 9 10 - 09 1050 50 / 1 David Mullins Henry de Bromhead ( IRE ) 34 Rogue Angel ( IRE ) 9 10 - 08 1020 20 / 1 Bryan Cooper Mouse Morris ( IRE ) 35 Cocktails At Dawn 9 10 - 08 1033 33 / 1 Nico de Boinville Nicky Henderson 36 Thunder And Roses ( IRE ) 9 10 - 07 1025 25 / 1 Mark Enright Mouse Morris ( IRE ) 37 Gas Line Boy ( IRE ) 11 10 - 07 1050 50 / 1 Robert Dunne Ian Williams 38 Goodtoknow 9 10 - 07 1066 66 / 1 Jake Greenall Kerry Lee 39 La Vaticane ( FR ) 8 10 - 06 1080 80 / 1 Richie McLernon David Pipe 40 Doctor Harper ( IRE ) 9 10 - 06 1050 50 / 1 Connor O'Farrell David Pipe Great Britain unless stated.

( April 2017 ) Two false starts occurred before the race could get underway, the first caused by several horses running off too keenly and the second by The Young Master and Raz de Maree jumping the gun from a standing start. When the race eventually began properly, the 50 / 1 outsider Roi Des Francs led the field on the first circuit with Rogue Angel and Highland Lodge also prominent. The 10 / 1 second - favourite Definitly Red was pulled up at Valentine 's, whilst Saphir Du Rheu fell at the 11th. As the horses rounded the turn to begin the second circuit, Roi Des Francs was carried out by a loose horse and rejoined the field in mid-division, leaving Rogue Angel as the new leader. Saint Are, Blaklion and Vieux Lion Rouge remained close behind the leaders. With five fences remaining, the 8 / 1 favourite Blaklion moved up to challenge Rogue Angel for the lead, with Saint Are going third and Cause of Causes coming into contention. With two fences left to jump, Blaklion raced into a three - length lead over Rogue Angel, as Vieux Lion Rouge advanced into third and One For Arthur made significant progress through the field. At the second - last, One For Arthur jumped into the back of the leader Blaklion, with Cause of Causes and Gas Line Boy moving up to contest first place. The four were all stride - for - stride as they took the last fence, but One For Arthur jumped into the lead and accelerated to go three lengths clear at the elbow, increasing that advantage in the final furlong as he crossed the finish line four - and - a-half lengths ahead of Cause of Causes in second, with three - and - a-half lengths back to Saint Are who ran on well to clinch third by half - a-length from Blaklion. There were no fatalities and all 40 runners returned safely to the stables.

As the Grand National is accorded the status of an event of national interest in the United Kingdom and is listed on the Ofcom Code on Sports and Other Listed and Designated Events, it must be shown on free - to - air terrestrial television in the UK. The race was broadcast live on TV by ITV. This was the first year that ITV broadcast the race live, following the decision by Channel 4 to drop the event and horse racing in general in 2016. The coverage was led by Ed Chamberlin. Retired champion jockey Sir Anthony McCoy and Mick Fitzgerald provided expert opinions throughout the coverage, with reports from Brough Scott, Luke Harvey, Oli Bell and Alice Plunkett and betting updates by Matt Chapman. The commentary team was Mark Johnson, Ian Bartlett and Richard Hoiles, who called the winner home for the first time in his terrestrial television commentary career.
