Famous Nickel Coin Mares Standard Open NH Flat Race Winners

The race is named after the 1951 Grand National winner who is also the most recent mare to win the big race.

It was first run in 2005 with victory going to Alan King’s Senorita Rumbalita, ridden by Robert Thornton.

King also won it in 2019 with The Glancing Queen, this time with Wayne Hutchinson aboard.

Nicky Henderson always has some promising mares for this type of event and won it for the first time with Carole’s Legacy in 2008. He struck again in 2016 with Kayf Grace.

Hollies Pearl was another highly rated winner in 2015, trained by Peter Bowen and ridden by Sean Bowen.

The 2022 renewal was won by Ashroe Diamond, a first victory in the race for trainer Willie Mullins.

Key Nickel Coin Mares Standard Open NH Flat Race Trials

There are no obvious trials for this race which, by nature, attracts inexperienced mares.

All but one of the last eleven winners had already chalked up one or more victories and all had raced at least twice.

None of them had won at Grade 1 to 3 level prior to running at Aintree.

Nickel Coin Mares Standard Open NH Flat Race Betting Trends

This has always attracted a large field with the smallest in the last eleven seasons being 15 runners in the 2021 renewal.

With very few form lines to go on, it is not surprising that only two favourites have prevailed during that period; Getaway Katie Mai (2018) at 15-8 and Ashroe Diamond (2022) at 9-4.

The longest priced winner during that spell was Avispa (2014) at 25-1 while Tempest River (2011) won at 20-1.

There have also been three recent 14-1 winners; Kayf Grace (2016), Dame Rose (2017) and Me Too Please (2021).

Five-year-olds have accounted for over half of the winners since the race was first run in 2005.
