Broadway Boy had been leading for much of the going during the Grand National on Saturday, but fell at the 25th fence with both horse and jockey Tom Bellamy needing medical attention
Broadway Boy is on his way home after being assessed following a scary fall during the 2025 Grand National. The horse, owned by Nigel Twiston-Davies had made all the early running at Aintree and was leading heading into the 25th fence.
However, the horse – guided by Tom Bellamy – saw its race ended there with a nasty looking fall potentially marring the dramatic race. ITV Racing confirmed Broadway Boy had been treated on course before being loaded onto the horse ambulance.
And on Sunday morning, Willy Twiston-Davies, an assistant trainer and son to Nigel, confirmed that the horse was heading home after a night of assessments. He posted on social media: “Thank you for all the lovely messages, more importantly thanks to all the vets at at Aintree Races.
“Broadway Boy is getting loaded onto the horse ambulance and coming home. Such a special horse to all of us at Grangehill farm.”
Willy’s brother Sam had earlier said that the horse was “stiff and sore” but all being well he would be making the trip back from Merseyside on Sunday.
