Grand National 2017 | Coral’s Grand Splash-ional!

Coral is celebrating this year’s Grand National – one of the most exciting events in the horse racing calendar – by moving the action to the water at the Liverpool Water Sports Centre. Featuring six graceful flyboarders, we’ve teamed the grace of champion racehorses with Iron Man-like technology for a thrilling race like no other you’ve seen before. Watch below to see who emerges victorious in Coral’s Grand Splash-ional!

Tom’s Reaction to the Grand Splash-ional

“It was great to see Vieux Lion Rouge win, but I certainly won’t be doing a loop-the-loop if I win the real version on Saturday. Flyboarding looked great fun, though I’m not sure I’d be very good at it; all that going down head-first. I’m not sure my body could take doing that. It certainly looked interesting. I’m not really a water-sports type. I try to keep out of the water really. I’ve never been a great swimmer. My Dad and my brother like the water and going out in boats. They have sea legs. I’m more like my Grandad. He didn’t have sea legs either.  Let’s hope for the same result on Saturday when I ride Vieux Lion Rouge in the Grand National!”
