Non-Runner Money Back

The Grand National is one of the most demanding races in the world, and last-minute withdrawals are common. Horses can be ruled out for various reasons — injuries, unsuitable ground conditions or even trainer decisions. This means that if you place an early bet on a horse that later doesn’t make it to the starting line, you could be left out of pocket.

That’s where Non-Runner Money Back comes in. With this offer, if your chosen horse is withdrawn before the race, you get your stake refunded. It’s a risk-free way to bet early and secure value while protecting yourself from unexpected withdrawals.

Withdrawals from the Grand National

As the final field takes shape, six horses have been removed from the Grand National line-up:

• L’Homme Presse

• Capodanno

• Velvet Elvis

• Minella Drama

• Fontaine Collonges

• Quick Wave

If you backed any of these horses with William Hill’s NRMB market, you will receive your stake back. This is a perfect example of how valuable this offer can be — without it, those bets would have been lost.

Last year’s race provided a similar situation when Run Wild Fred was withdrawn on the morning of the event due to lameness. This highlights how unpredictable race week can be, making NRMB a crucial factor when placing bets in advance.

Current Grand National favourites

With the latest withdrawals, the Grand National market is beginning to settle, and we now have joint-favourites leading the betting. Iroko (17/2 NRMB), trained by Oliver Greenall and Josh Guerriero and owned by JP McManus, is among the top contenders.

The gelding has not secured a victory since winning a novice chase at Warwick in November 2023, but his talent and staying power make him a strong candidate for success at Aintree.

Stumptown (8/1 NRMB) is another runner attracting attention and is the current market leader. Trained by William Hill ambassador Gavin Cromwell, Stumptown recently impressed by winning a Cross-Country race at the Cheltenham Festival. Off a rating of 157, he looks well-handicapped and capable of mounting a strong challenge in this year’s Grand National. You can read more about Stumptown in Gavin’s blog here.

Betting on the Grand National can be both thrilling and unpredictable but taking advantage of NRMB offers ensures you aren’t left empty-handed if your chosen horse doesn’t make it to the starting line. As we approach race day, keeping an eye on the market and securing the best odds with NRMB protection is a smart strategy.
