The 2025 Scottish Grand National prize money will have a lot more focus on this year, with top Irish trainer Willie Mullins back in the champion jumps trainers’ title race after his Grand National 1-2-3.
With that in mind, we list how much is on offer to the winner of Saturday’s big Ayr race – plus also showcase the total Scottish Grand National prize money right down to eighth in case Mullins has it off again.
Scottish Grand National Prize Money 2025 Will See The Winner Get £112,540
The winner of Saturday’s big Ayr race will walk away with £112,540 – which is exactly what the Willie Mullins-trained Macdermott did in 2024.
This 7 year-old is back for more in 2025 as he’s one of an army of Willie Mullins Scottish Grand National runners in the race – as his jumps trainers’ title race with Dan Skelton is an added subplot to Saturday’s race.
Having trailed Skelton by over £1.3m before the recent Aintree Grand National Festival, Mullins had a meeting to remember. Which climaxed with a remarkable 1-2-3 in the Grand National on Saturday.
It was 33/1 shot Nick Rockett, who was also ridden by son Patrick, who led home the Mullins charge.
All this has taken Mullins to just over £100k of Skelton with just under three weeks of the season to go.
As a result the best horse racing betting sites now make Mullins the red-hot favourite to win the title for a second time.
With Saturday’s Scottish Grand National the next big UK prize that Willie Mullins is targeting.
