Grand National 2014 Results
The 2014 Grand National had the distinction of being sponsored by Crabbie’s, the brand owned by Halewood International Ltd., and for the first time its history featured total prize money of £1 million. The winning prize money, £561,000, went the way of Pineau De Re, trained by Dr. Richard Newland and ridden by Leighton Aspell, who was not unconsidered at 25/1, having hacked up in a veterans’ handicap chase at Exeter and been beaten a nose and a neck in the Pertemps Network Final at the Cheltenham Festival on his last two starts.
Aspell had retired from the saddle in 2007, but returned to race-riding two years later and received just reward for his perserverance, as the 11-year-old led approaching the second-last fence and drew clear on the run-in to beat Baltahazar King, ridden by Richard Johnson, and the 10/1 joint favourite, Double Seven, ridden by Tony McCoy, by five lengths and one-and-a-quarter lengths. The other joint-favourite, Teaforthree, blundered and unseated Nick Schofield at The Chair, by which point the well-fancied Long Run, winner of the Cheltenham Gold Cup in 2011, was already out of the race, having fallen, when in the lead, at Valentine’s Brook on the first circuit. All told 18 of the 40 runners completed the course and all of them returned without serious injury.
Pineau de Re also ran in the Grand National again in 2015 but, off an 8lb higher mark and ridden by Daryl Jacob, could finish only twelfth, beaten 57¾ lengths by the winner. That winner was, of course, Many Clouds, trained by Oliver Sherwood and ridden by none other than Leighton Aspell.
