Grand National 2023 full results, each way bet payouts and where your horse came

Corach Rambler has won this year's Grand National at Aintree Racecourse.

The 8/1 horse, trained by Lucinda Russell and her partner in business and life, Peter Scudamore, Corach Rambler was ridden to victory by jockey Derek Fox, who was passed fit for the race by a doctor late on.

It’s a second Grand National victory for both Fox and Russell, after One For Arthur won in 2017, WalesOnline reports.

Fox told ITV Racing: "I can’t believe it, to be honest. He’s a phenomenal horse and he’s been so lucky for me. It’s a blessing that I ever got the leg up on him on that first day."

As for whether he had any moments of doubt, the double Grand National-winning jockey said: "He normally gets held up a wee bit but today he just jumped out and travelled everywhere so, I just let him bowl away. He’s electric to jump, the cleverest horse. He’s so intelligent. My only concern would be if he was in front for too long but that wasn’t the case. I was just doing the steering, to be honest."

The showpiece race in Liverpool had been forced into a 15-minute delay due to protesters gaining access to the course, but once the historic steeplechase got going it was all about the horse racing again.

Noble Yeats, ridden by Welsh jockey Sean Bowen, had gone into the race looking to defend his 2022 champion title.

Which places do each-way bets pay out on?

Three-quarters of all bets placed on the race are each-way bets and they're so popular because you're not actually betting on your horse to win outright. Instead, you're betting on it to finish among the top handful of places, the specific number of which are determined by the bookmakers.

Betway is paying the most each-way places for the 2023 Grand National, with seven places at 1/5.

Betway: 7 places, 1/5 odds

talkSPORT BET: 6 places, 1/5 odds

bet365: 6 places, 1/5 odds

BetUK: 6 places, 1/5 odds

If you bet to win outright - or 'on the nose' - then it's all or nothing. You either win or you lose, if your horse comes anywhere other than first, you don't win a penny. However, if you bet each-way, you're actually making two bets with the bookie.

It's one bet that the horse will finish first and another that it will come in the determined number of places that the bookie pays out on. So, for example, if you bet £1 each-way, you've made two bets, which overall will cost you £2.

What does that meaning in terms of winnings? Well, if your horse wins at 12/1, and you put £1 on it to win outright, then you get your £12 returns plus your original £1 stake. However, if you backed it each way, then you'll get £12 returns plus your £1 stake.

In addition, if the bookies offer 1/4 the odds for a place, then you'll get another £3 plus your £1 stake. If your horse finishes placed but doesn't win, you'll just get your £3 returns and your £1 stake back.
