Although recorded by the press at the time as the fourth running of the Grand Liverpool Steeplechase, which was renamed the Grand National in 1847, the first three runnings were poorly organised affairs possibly run at Maghull.
The first three iterations of what would become known as the Grand National were inaccurately recorded by the press as the fourth running of the Grand Liverpool Steeplechase. It wasn't until 1847 that the event was officially rebranded as the Grand National, although it's possible that the initial events were held at Maghull.
