| Wednesday 1st November 1882 | ||||
| The waterlogged state of the ground meant that, although the Hurdle races were held, the Grand Annual Steeplechase was declared void. | ||||
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 1882 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. | ||||
