Was just reading about this here in London on the Racing Post website and so thought that I would search for it on here.

First run in 1894, Don't forget to tell them of the exploits of Jay Trump who won three Maryland Hunt Cups, 1963, 1964, 1966 and the English Grand National in 1965 and Ben Nevis II who won two Maryland Hunt Cups 1977 & 78 and the English Grand National in 1980

@@radleysmith7528 The forums I am on are well versed in steeplechasing and are of Jay Trump and Ben Nevis. The latter started in point to points in the north of England and I have reason to believe that I saw his first ever race. My father was at Aintree in 1965 supporting Freddie scottish runner up to Jay Trump

@@radleysmith7528 Thanks for that. Both Ben Nevis and Jay Trump were incredibly brave and versatile horses. I remember seeing a video of a very elderly Jay Trump sometime in the 1980s, he was very long-lived. Clearly well-loved and cared for.

The rotational fall was seriously scary. Hope everyone came out of the race okay.

Have the fences changed in size or stiffness over the last 40 years?

I believe they've got longer & wider! 🧐 Four miles over 22 post-and-rail fences -- some nearly five-feet (4'10'') the Maryland Hunt Cup is the third and final leg of the Maryland Timber Triple series over a three-week span a unique test of jumping skill and stamina. In keeping with tradition they have resisted temptation to turn a great amateur sporting event into a farcical media dictating frenzy designed to create division. (see The Grand National@ Liverpool UK for details)
