When is the 2025 Irish Grand National?

The 2025 Irish Grand National is on Monday 21st April 2025 and the race will begin at 5pm BST at Fairyhouse. There’s a whole host of top racing taking place at Fairyhouse though. Despite the cancellation of day 1 after heavy rain, we still have three top quality days on Sunday 20th and Monday 21st April, with Saturday’s card being moved to Tuesday. A bumper eight race card is scheduled for Sunday and Monday, with the 2025 Irish Grand National the sixth race on Monday.

Intense Raffles won the race last year, but is not racing in the 2025 Irish Grand National this year, which gives the chance for a new winner to emerge.
