Results before 1990 from published records (winners listed only where two published sources agree); figures from 1990 from the RaceWatch results database. The Grand National was first run in 1839; winners from 1839 to 1949 are not listed here yet because we could not check them against a second official source. Checked against: Wikipedia: List of Grand National winners; The Jockey Club, Grand National previous winners. A detail is shown only where both sources give it and agree; a blank cell means they did not.

What is the Grand National and when is it run?
The Grand National is Aintree's marathon handicap chase in April, run over about four and a half miles until 2012. The start was moved forward in 2013, and the race is now run over about four miles two and a half furlongs (officially 4 miles 514 yards).
Who is running in the next Grand National?
Runners for the 2027 Grand National appear here when entries reach our racecards, about five days before the race, which is due around 10 April 2027. The Grand National field is capped at 34 runners, and the list shows each horse's age, weight, official rating and trainer, with jockeys once runners are declared.
Where is the full list of Grand National winners?
The winners list runs from 1950: 40 winners from published records up to 1989, with jockey, trainer, SP and age where two sources agree, then 35 runnings since 1990 from the RaceWatch results database. The race was first run in 1839; winners before 1950 are not listed yet because we could not check them against a second official source.

I Am Maximus and Tiger Roll have each won the Grand National twice in the data since 1990.
What do the Grand National trends show?
16 of the 34 Grand National winners since 1991 had run in Britain or Ireland within the previous 30 days, the most common gap, and 19 of the 34 had finished in the first three on their previous run. The trends table also splits runners by official rating, level and course of the last run, and weight carried, with winners, runners and win % for each group.

Favourites have won 9 of 35 runnings since 1990, and the biggest-priced winner in the data is Mon Mome (FR) at 100/1.

Why is there no 1993 or 2020 Grand National winner?
The 1993 Grand National was declared void and the 2020 race was not run. Both years are missing from the roll of honour for that reason.
