Grand National 'Chase Today

ish royalty. Communist cops. poll- ticians and about 250.000 ordinary folk congregate here today to watch 30 horses and riders risk their necks in the most dangerous and spectacular of all horse races. The 110th Tunning of the Grand National steeplechase goes off this morning with the winner expected to come from this group-Devon Loch. Must. Sundew. Carey's Cot- use. E. S. B. and Pippykin. Those are the betting favorites.

. But the long shot players are

poured in on the National Hunt stewards.

Jockeys seldom are seriously in- jured. but more than 50 horses are believed to have been killed be- cause of Grand National spills. The number possibly is much higher due to destruction of injured mounts several days after the race and away from Aintree.

Last year the course was deep in mud and jockeys had to take it slowly. No horses were killed.

In 1954 of 29 starters. only nine

Back in 1928 the only horse not to fall was Tipperary Tim.

QUEEN MOTHER'S ENTRIES

Members of the British royal fami - Queen Elizabeth. the Queen Mother ami Princess Mar- garet-were expected for the iace.

Th Queen Mother owns Devon Loch and M'As-Tu-Vii. Her Eevon Loch has attracted practically all the sentimental money because of a Bi'iton's love of hrltiiig on the royal entry.

The number of starting mounts who manage to stay on their feet during the race's 10 brutal min- utes depends heavily on luck, jockey nerves and the weather.

FIRM COURSE DANGEROUS

If the weather holds clear and tho 50 - obstacle. foiir-anri-a-lialf- mile turf course remains firm and fast the chanccs of more than 10 horses finishing are slim.

Steeplechase lnckcys are natur- ally nervv folk and when the going is fast they go for it-usually a hit too fast. That is what happened in some previous years when in- jured horses had to be destroyed.
