Up for Review became the first horse to die in the National since 2012, suffering a fatal injury at the very first fence during the main race on Saturday.
The Grand National will once again come under review by Aintree and the British Horseracing Authority after three horses died during this year’s meeting.
But now track authorities and the BHA will once again scrutinise the three casualties that occurred over the three-day event from Thursday to Saturday. The RSPCA said it was “deeply saddened and concerned to see the deaths of three horses at Aintree this year”. Meanwhile, Jockey Club Racecourses North West regional director Dickon White said: “As a sport of animal lovers, we wanted every horse to come home – and sadly that’s not been the case with Up For Review.”
