Guy at the front Loose horse:I'm bout to wreck this mans whole career
I no right.... Hes all trophy bound.... And then forced 2 take a hard right...
Don't, I had my bet on that horse :'(
Respect for the 3 horses who continued the race without their rider
Herd instinct.
@@lumini3172 Meanwhile that horse that refused to race:
@@truthboom And? Different horses react differently to stress and overstimulation. It overrode that particular horse’s herd instinct. Sort of like how that one horse jumped a fence to race after bikers in a marathon. It didn’t jump over fences normally, but it did in that instance. That particular horse’s herd instinct gave it a reason to jump over the fence while other horses might’ve gotten scared and ran away instead. So yeah, different horses react differently. Generally speaking, though, most horses who were _already_ running in the race would continue running after losing their rider. I’ve even seen horses with serious, death-sentence injuries try to continue running. It’s heartbreaking.
@@lumini3172 Or the horse holds a grudge and decided not to participate. Not all are herd instinct. Can herd instinct lets a horse read Human emotion or even do Math? Intelligence can overrode that herd instinct.
@@truthboom I’m sorry, what? Horses can’t hold grudges, they don’t have the brain capacity for that. They can fear someone or have reactions to things they had bad experiences with, yes, but they don’t hold grudges. Most animals can read the emotions of other animals to some extent but they still have instincts that can be hard for them to ignore. Doing math doesn’t change anything about that either.
5 years later, youtube recommended this to me, and I watched it. Why?
Same and now i‘m here and idk why lol
What’s the problem?
@@abc98114 no kidding, that was awesome!
Just now for me. Lol.
I love how the horse just kept going when there jockeys come off :D
I would love to see a race with no jockey. let the horses run on thier own.
@@k9thundra that would be very dangerous. Horses without riders are liable to veer off course. Those rails are plastic tubes and they can plow right through them.
Лошади без жокеев скачут не хуже и не падают👍
It’s herd instinct. They don’t want to race.
really? thats sad. fuck u for supporting this, its nothing but animal abuse
Horses love racing and they love all the extreme pampering they get. They get rub-downs, best food, best vet attention and they are in top condition.
"Horses love racing" is BS. Many horses love to RUN, but horses have no concept of RACING or of coming in at one position or another. Equally, many horses HATE to run and are TERRIFIED of being forced together. Making generalizations about what some other being loves or hates is foolish.
to summarize: i don’t blame that horse for refusing to start.

@@user-angelicaddlos how much you getting paid to say that shite?
Cheers for the riderless horses determinedly running the race- their own way.
Ofc they can. Horses are naturally wild animals. In the wild they jump things higher then this. The only reason there was accidents is because horses were clumping together on the jumps. 🤷🏻♀️
loose horses are a terrible hazard in any race
@@clairewinterriver9750 . c ft
claire winterriver - I see you on a lot of these comments. Stop trying to defend this ‘sport’, clearly you condone animal cruelty if you don’t see anything wrong with this. I’ve said it before, the horses will GO ROUND the jump if they can, they don’t enjoy jumping the fences at all. They follow the other horses because they’re pack animals and it’s instinct. That DOES NOT mean they enjoy what they are doing.
@@clairewinterriver9750 horses dont jump much in wilderness 😂😂
For some reason I have fallen in love with watching the old racers thay bring back so many memories
I love the riderless horses who just get up and keep going until they finish the race rider or not, they refuse to quit.
Omg they just follow the herd. that's their natural instinct 🤦♀️

The National Field heading to Bechers Brook on the first circuit used to be one of the most exciting moments in all of sports period. They have now turned Bechers into little more than a Brush Hurdle. The Ditchs at Cheltenham, Newbury & Kempton are more challenging now than the Chair Fence. The remaining unique part of the course is the Canal Turn because of the 90 degree angle.
Maybe the race organizers caught flack as the number of maimed and dead horses rise cumulatively each year. So sorry that you are disappointed, not.
The rate of horses dying has increased since they lowered the height of jumps. Now they're running faster and are more bunched up. So it's actually more dangerous now. You can look it up and see that the percentage of horses dying per starting horses has increased significantly since 1989, when they first started lowering fences and evening out ditches. Search for "List of equine fatalities in Grand National".
Wow they made it safer for the horses and jockeys ? How dare they 😮
The problem with some of the riders falling off is that there's simply too many horses
yes, I counted ten jockeys down😬
These horse races are crazy. And they literally have a job for everyone on that track. Controlling where the loose horses go. Someone to get the bushes after they jump it. Ambulance driving alongside horses. Someone to get falling jockeys. Literally everything. Idk why but I enjoy seeing things like that.
It's the only sport that you have a Vey and a Doctor and a Ambulance following
Wow this race has got everything! Action, drama, betrayal,(horse puts its hoof down! Wants a take on the receipts at the start of the race!), narration is superv, comedy,(horses running amok w/no riders! LOVE IT!
If u really want to enjoy this Race,u have to watch the Legendary "Red Rum" he ran this Race 5 times(back in the 1970's,&u can watch those Races on YT), with a record of 3W&2,2nd places....He was a "One of a kind "Wonder horse"the likes of we are unlikely to see again! And the Race back in those yrs was a lot tougher!
as an american, this is the first time i have ever seen or heard of ANYTHING like this! this is surprisingly violent and very hysterical! there were riderless horses actually winning at one point. this is something americans would love too! haha
shows how useless these jockeys are.
horse racing is a lot worse in america, i think every horse in america is on steriods? not as much as the uk anyway

We have tons of steeple chases in America, we just don’t have the Grand National...

Considering a serious of terrible jumps, Pineau de Re's performance was simply amazing!
Terrible jumps? These have been seriously shortened and narowed in the last 10-25 years.
@@dinerouk It’s still a bad and stupid idea. Too many horses going too fast for the jumps. One horse trips over a jump and at least 2 others will always fall down over them.
Dorpets meant that Pineau de Re made jumping mistakes.
Definitely. My heart was in my mouth. Don't normally do well on the National but I'd backed him. I then got 5 numbers on the National Lottery that same evening. 😊
This was a superb win by Pineau De Re whose jockey Leighton Aspell followed up with another win in the race 12 months later with Many Clouds.

Don't know anything about horse racing, but spread each way bets on Moonshine, Pineau De Re, and Avarado, and made a tidy return. Bet I would look like a pro gambler to a regular bettor, despite not having a clue :-D
Strong, fast athletic horse race with top, tough jockeys.
...with Shaka laka boom boom...🤣🤣 Dead
I backed Pineau De Re, best jockey over the national fences in recent times, Leighton Aspell, a superstar. I have to say that as he made me a few quid, lol.
Very interesting - I've read all the Dick Francis novels many times, and he never once mentioned loose horses staying with the pack for multiple circuits, cutting across the track in front of the leaders, and perhaps occasionally passing the finish line ahead of the race winner.

The horses are bred to race. They don't give a crap if they have someone on their back or not.
Beverly, it looks to me like there are more loose horses causing problems since they started lowering fences and evening out ditches. Everyone's more bunched up and the loose horses keep running longer. Maybe the higher fences in the past discouraged horses from continuing? Not sure but I've been watching lots of races lately and the loose horses weren't as much as a problem in the past.
The Grand National has always been one of the most dangerous races in the world! However, it is so full of adrenaline, it will stay a desirable landmark for a horse, or jockey. Man o War had a son who won it, named Battleship.
Most dangerous race in the world? How on earth have you not heard of the Isle of man TT?
So it was termed in my childhood, back in the 60s. Haven't heard of the Isle of Man, no. I didn't follow steeplechasing when I grew up. Don't know why, just didn't.

@@mattymair3172 It is a motor sport? Sorry, not my cuppa. Horse racing and baseball are my sports. I have a distant cousin in NASCAR and used to like Formula 1, in the US, in the days of Foyt, the Unsers. Haven't paid attention to them in a long while. I thought you meant it was a horse steeplechase.
I hadn't ever seen such a long race in my life..
Or sickening
It is a fantastic race. The horses qualify to race. It is 4 miles long, 30 fences. It has been modified, they reduced Bechers Brook fence.
Was all over Pineau De Re , great memories
I've never seen that in the US. We do those pansy one laps. These horses are warriors.
Well said my friend.
If you look back at the race and just focus on the winner,he made 3 or 4 mistakes.He did well to recover
That guy at the beginning is smacking the horse with a lunge whip. Like what the hell!
my favorite part are the horses who keep running even without a rider!
and leading here and there, what are the riders for ;-)?
They love to run man
Across The Bay is one of the unluckiest horses in recent times. He lost about 40 to 50 lengths when the loose horse ran him out to the outside rail. By the time he got going again, he was last. He eventually finished in about 12th place, maybe 40 to 50 lengths behind the winner ....... do the maths on that one!
This... this is a real race. Thank you.
It's seems like this would be immensely safer for horses and riders if there weren't so many horses in the race.
LESismore in local races there is normally only ten its only because they’re trying to shove all the bets horses into one race
Then it wouldn't be the grand national
@@aine7529 Well, they need to figure out a better way to do it. Occasional accidents will happen. This is criminal when you KNOW that many of them will fall!
... they have to be many considering the small percentage of "survivals" !! lol
I can remember reading the STORY OF NATIONAL VELVET and could not understand why she fell off at the end of the race. Now having seen such a race it is very clear and a wonder how she managed to finish the race at all.
She fainted through sheer delight on winning the race.
That one guys just asking to kicked if he keeps waving his arms behind the horses like that
If you knew the basics of racing you would know that this happens often. It's a technique to get the horse to run
Facts he boutta get kicked!!
I laughed so hard when the horses with no riders kept jumping
This ist not funny🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡
How is that even funny for you?
Ofc they can. Horses are naturally wild animals. In the wild they jump things higher then this. The only reason there was accidents is because horses were clumping together on the jumps. 🤷🏻♀️

claire winterriver ok??? did i ask?? i made that comment when i was 10 years old and going through a horse phase. keep it to yourself next time ,smartass. no need to reply to a 3 year old comment.
I bet £2 on Pineau De Re and Rocky Creek, came out with £38! Once a year I bet and made two good choices this year!
That's not a race, it's a mess
Ísis R. It is pretty hilarious to see all those horses in a huge cluster, most of them losing their riders or being pulled up. I counted 15 horses at the end crossing the line. 40 started the race. So almost two thirds of the horses didn't even finish the race, lmfao!!!
+Ísis R. Yes I know that is not a race it is a massacre, every jump a horse goes down, that's when you know there's a problem. This is one equine sport that probably has more causalities then any other equine sport. I always liked steeple chase and horse racing but when things go wrong to manyy times theres a problem.

„Horses love to run, horses love to jump and compete.“ this video is the proof for everyone who is telling this shit over and over again that it’s NOT like that. The first one was smart af.
I mean it's true for sure that some horses love running and jumping and competing, but usually not like this at all. Horses don't like to be abused into that stuff.
ya and what about alllll the other horses who’s rider fell off and they kept going?
Did you see the loose horses that keep running and jumping no ones "forcing" them.
Horses are herd animals, what would you do if you’re herd is running away from you? This is not a proof for fun at the race! You can clearly see that the horses try to avoid the fences whenever it’s possible! I can’t believe that people are so blind. Open your eyes and watch the video again with the mind of a flight animal. Maybe it will help to understand. If not, I feel really sorry for you.
Valish 20 if you don't like horse racing then why are you watching this? Horses aren't stupid, they look at the fence and decide if they fancy their chances. Horses and pull up (stop) or refuse a jump whenever they want nobody forces them. The horses feel like they are running in a herd and like it. I'm sorry but you clearly don't know much about the racing industry
#15 is a genius horse. He refused to participate in the insanity!!
then he probably gets sent to be butchered if he keeps this up... probably not as smart of a choice if you look at the bigger picture
@@yourfriendlycynic none of these horses are ever butchered for meat they are treated like kings in the stable

Молодцы всем участникам.
SOLL looks to have a great chance having seemingly improved for the move to David Pipe and Tom Scu rides, fair value at 20/1. Saint Are has come right back to form and has some very solid form over these fences, value at 33/1 and finally Raz De Maree which finished a well beaten 8th last year but could go close if getting a run. Is No 43 at the moment so not guaranteed to get in but value at 50/1 after running very well in the Midlands Grand National at Uttoxeter last time up My five for the combination tricast are: SOLL, SAINT ARE, RAZ DE MAREE, CHANCE DU ROY and BALTHAZAR KING Good luck to all who are having a punt
Richard Smith i agree with BALTHAZAR KING, as long as he doesn't run into any trouble. He's my bet fingers x
If you had to pick one horse, would it be Balthazar?
yep jumps well stays well should be at the business end if he avoids trouble that is
i had my money on baltahzar king but it was still money well spent! - thats just one little memory from the wonderful world of horse racing!
I am amazed at the race callers identifying the fallen at a second's notice. There are two race callers taking turns at intervals in the race.
Maybe some"pre determined" fall?
Long live jumps racing! Love the Grand National
My late dad won a great bet on a winner i think 1962 "Nicholas silver" and got us out of Liverpool to a posh house up the road a bit called Southport & what a step up his ladder it was too ! R.I.P. DAD.
The Belmont is the longest race in America at 1.5 miles. The Grand National is 4 miles! Just brutal. Especially if you fall off your horse and get trampled.
Terrible race

They treat the horses like shit too sorry for my language
@@phoenixc7245 absolutely deluded if you think that, these horses are one of the most loved, cared for and looked after animals on the planet. Do you not think that half a ton of horse would just refuse or get rid of his rider if they didn't want to race
I hate it when people try forcing horses to do things! If they dont want to do it dont force them! If you do it could end in a bad injury for horse and rider just like shacalacaboomboom last year!!
EllieBex You don't actually ride horses, do you?
I'm voting for green
ToyBonnie thebunny did you notice a bunch of horses kept jumping the fences without riders? Also, if you were a rider, you would know that if a horse really doesn’t want to do something IT WONT DO IT.
im sure none of the horses want to be riden, even outside competition but they are.
You...you did see that the horses continued jumping after their rider fell off, right? That in itself shows that the horses aren't being forced to jump.

It’s not about who win is about who survives till the end
Congrats to the connections. nice to see unsung heroes have their day and no injuries. However, I am still old school and prefer loose horses and the old fences as I dont want to see horses breasting the fences 3ft down as the winner did at the 13th. As we are hell bent on keeping as many horses running as possible may go some way to explain pile ups at the Canal Turn. Dont really give two hoots for the anti GN group.
Balthazar King has done me so proud this season what a horse I backed it in October at Cheltenham winning by 7 lengths from Tour Des Champs got 5/1 for it and won at Cheltenham for me again in the Cross Country a few weeks ago got 11/2 for it had a 20 pound win on it so for the National I had a tenner e/w at 33/1 and another tenner e/w at 25/1 on him expecting nothing from the horse and it runs a blinder to finish 2nd love Balthazar king!!!
The isle of man of horse racing
Steeplechase is by far the most despicable horse racing event there could possibly be.
Quite spectacular to view but deadly for the jockeys
and the horses
Only one jockey has died in the history of the Grand National. Lots of injuries though.
Had the 1-2 with Pineau De Re at 25-1 and Balthazar King at a whopping 33-1 (went off 14-1)!!! Amazing day! Will go down in my personal annals as one of the greatest nationals ever :D
Sure you did.
Mike S No you're right I lied on KZhead. I wanted to be king of the tube with all my followers bowing down to me ;( Am I going to jail now?...but really, I did lol. If you know a little about horse racing it isn't as hard as people think to pick a placed horse (have done 4 of the last 5 years). This was an especially good race though, and one I doubt I will ever repeat again in terms of success
Simon Edmonds I thought you meant you had a straight forecast of 1st and 2nd. If you didn't mean that I apologise. .
Nah not a forecast, just the 1-2. Also had Chance Du Roy in 6th. Just a good year for me :)
In that case i apologise . I had Rocky Creek. Just to win though :(. Wish i'd done top 5. He was leading for ages though. Got my hopes up.

Real racing.
These races depend on the navigation from jockeys,it's a smart and challenging race,racing room is very optional with judging the pace and the awareness of obstructions coming your way.
