Question

What is the biggest horse race in the world i think its the grand national?

Answer 1

There has been rallying to put horse racing in the Olympics for decades.  So far, it hasn't happened.  I would put the Olympic Equestrian competition as the biggest horse event in the world but not a race.  In the USA, there is nothing bigger than the Kentucky Derby.

Answer 2

34 kentucky derby

Answer 3

It is the toughest yes, although it is now limited to 40 runners. I remember in the 60's one time it had 48 starters!!

In 1990 Beeches was considerably reduced in size due to four horses dieing the year before. Due to that and also it was fast ground Mr. Frisk beat Red Rums record by about 14 seconds. (In 1990]

The greatrest sporting specticle there is.

Answer 4

Biggest NO

But the toughest YES !!

In Europe It is BIG



My friend owned 1/10 of a horse in one 1980 it finished 9th I think out of 24 thats good because only 11 actually came in



The Grand National is a highlight of the world of STEEPLE CHASE !!!

So yes your right in STEEPLE CHASE '' It's the biggest !!!!



I also work for a race horse trainer who rode in it  He made post cards of his picture.. He is a flat horse trainer now !!

Answer 5

The two biggest races in the world, as far as viewers and betting turnover go, are the Grand National and the Melbourne Cup.

The most prestigious race, in my eyes, is the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe.  It has consistently produced top class winners over the years and there is never a bad renewel.
