Question

How heavy was the grand national winner comply or die?

Answer 1

only his trainer could answer that as i would assume a top trainer like pipe as a weighing facility as even a few pounds below or over ther optimuim racing weight can lead to a below par performance.typically a chaser as to be around 16.2 hands high or more ,the longer distance runners,those that needs 3 miles plus usually have deeper chests as well plus the fact he seems to carry high weights well(won grand national trial of top weight) i would guess at 1100 - 1200lbs.the average mature flat horse is around 1050lbs i think.i belive party politics was close to 18 hands in height and must of weighed in excess of 1200lbs.

Answer 2

I dont know the actual weight of the horse if that is what you are asking. What i do know however is that the Comply or Die had to carry 10 stone 9 on his back.

Answer 3

dunno but he would of been a lot lighter after the race than before
