FORERUNNER TO THE GRAND ANNUAL STEEPLECHASE |
|
||
| 1840 | ||||
| As the initial 1836 Steeplechase did not 'answer the expectations of the racing authorities', no Chase took place in 1840. | ||||
The Worcester Grand Annual Steeplechase is intrinsically linked with the Aintree Grand National, its inaugural running taking place in 1836, the same year the first 'unofficial' Grand National took place. For details of the 1840 Aintree Grand National click here. |

| Another famous race from days gone by, the Land O' Plums Steeplechase, formerly run at Pershore Racecourse, has now been reinstated at Worcester racecourse. | ||||
