Grand National top 34 remains strong despite four horses being removed as field prepares for the race.

The latest update for the Classic Getaway race includes the withdrawal of Bronn and Full Back in recent weeks. Additionally, Topham entries Empire Steel and Fantastic Lady have not been confirmed, nor has Angels Dawn.

The final field will be confirmed at 10 a.m. on Thursday morning, with no reserves available. This means that if the top 32 are declared, a random ballot will determine which two of three horses will fill the final two places in the line-up.

This year, the number of runners has been reduced to 34 for the first time, with the aim of promoting the safety of participants competing over the National fences. There are six British-trained horses guaranteed a run in the race.

Notably, Malina Girl and Desertmore House are among those currently below the cut-off point, requiring other horses to come out to make the final field.
