Get On George has been ‘humanely euthanised’ after pulling up on Grand National day at Aintree.

In the third race of the biggest day in the British racing calandar, the horse pulled up during the William Hill Handicap Hurdle and was quickly dismounted by jockey Jack Tudor.

The six-year-old was assessed by on-course veterinary staff but it has since been confirmed he has been put down.

Get On George is the second horse fatality at the festival after Gold Dancer was put down after winning the Mildmay Novices’ Chase on Friday.
