which, incidentally, is a race that is very different from its namesake in England.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike the Aintree Grand National, which has a gruelling 4m 2 1\/2f distance and some of the toughest fences in jumps racing &#8211; the US version is run over fixed-brushed hurdles and over a trip of just 2m5f.<\/p>\n<p>However, despite this, it&#8217;s still nice to see American jump racing latching onto the Grand National and in recent years with a first prize of \u00a3118,000 it&#8217;s been targeted by some ex and current Irish runners and jockeys.<\/p>\n<p>Including Nicky Henderson and Nico de Boinville, who teamed up to win the race in 2019 on Brian Power.<\/p>\n<p>This theme has continued into 2024 as one of the American Grand National runners heading to Far Hills racecourse in New Jersey is a former Epsom Derby favourite &#8211;

finishing 10th in the St Leger at Doncaster in 2021 &#8211; and didn&#8217;t win a race when trained on at the age of 4.<\/p>\n<p>High Definition was then sent to Aidan&#8217;s son Joseph to run over hurdles &#8211; winning on his sticks debut at Leopardstown on Boxing Day 2022 &#8211; but this victory remains his last heading to Far Hills.<\/p>\n<p>On a plus, the horse is still only aged 6 and having been sold to the Leslie F Young team in the US made a promising start to his Stateside career with a second at Percy Warner Park in May.<\/p>\n<p>Jockey Jamie Bargary, who some will remember riding a lot of the Nigel Twiston-Davies yard, rode the last day and keeps the mount in Saturday&#8217;s American Grand National.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>American Grand National 2024: When Is The Far Hills Race?<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Staged at the Far Hills race meeting, the American Grand National is a race run over a trip of 2m 5f &#8211;
