Forbra
Forbra was a National Hunt racehorse best known for being the winner of the 1932 Grand National steeplechase when relatively unconsidered at 50/1. Prior to his victory in 1932, Forbra beat Golden Miller in a race where 'The Miller' was disqualified for carrying the wrong weight. The gelding had originally been aimed at another race at the meeting, but was switched to the National after winning a race at Taunton Racecourse. He started at odds of 50/1 in a field of thirty-six runners and won by three lengths from Egremont. Forbra subsequently finished sixth in the race in 1933 and fourth in 1934 and never fell during his racing career. He was put down in 1935 after a race at Newbury, having broken a fetlock between the final two fences.
