Rejected petition Ban the Grand National

The Grand National is just over 4 miles long . The Horses are clearly seen to be beaten with a whip by the jockey's every single year . Not only is this inhumane it is animal abuse . Many Horses have either died at Aintree after this horrendous 'race' or been euthanised afterwards.
