KEVIN collins LVE

Flash Bulb was a very decent 2 mile chaser who was trained by Bob Turnell and ridden by the stylish Johnny Haine.

I just loved L, escargot, and quite forgot that he made up such a lot of ground at the end of the race I always remember Ginger Mcain saying L, escargot never quite got the credit he deserved.I thought that was a nice comment to make

Proper GRAND National. Now its like a hurdles race. First time this year that i never watched it.What next.? Take away the fences .?

DB's crushing defeat here, IMO, made his legacy overlooked by some of those Americans and make some stereotype thoughts towards the then European horse racing, while in the past US horse racing did deeply influence the European counterpart before the beginning of this century, since many of those then European top flat horses were bred in America, including DB himself. Besides, I guess this race also became one of the reasons why Frankel didn't go to the US decades later. I heard some of those yanks thought this so-called invincible thing would be eventually blown out of water by their local hero, Wise Dan.

Crackin wee sprinter..

Future champion hurdle and gold cup winner dawn run and future grand national winner west tip

Terrible commentary...took him ages to spot the fall of Music Be Magic. He habitually did this, O Sullevan nice voice but over rated race reader

Never knew amarach come from the flat remember it being a decent hurdler in the early 80s for roger fisher

Tiger Roll won two really poor Nationals, this Horse was beating Top Cheltenham Horses with Top Weight, what he did after was just as incredible. To think that Lester Piggott won a seller on him at Aintree.

This Commentator is truly incredibly spot on !

Carroll House won the arc . Later in the year. . Indian skimmer wasn't as good at 5 . But compare the quality of this sir gordon Richards stakes compared to all recent ones absolutely no comparison.

Neale Doughty from Cefn Cribbwr Glamorgan had a excellent Grand National record, was a excellent Horseman.

If memory seves Colin Kemball (Freddie Bee) was around 56 here. They pulled his licence and good thing too according to his son, who I spoke with 20 years later. RIP Roman Bar 15 year old

Massive crowd back then.

and Barathea was no mug just left him for dead

my favourite horse ever

This wouldn't of gone ahead today ..wayward lad broke my heart in the gold cups....especially against dawn run

Amazing Lester

Remember backing this I was only 17 I got my cousin to put it on for me 😊

Another great ride from sir Lester, impeccable jockey.

Vincent, and Lester, winning combination, great classic, going back to Diomed.

El Gran Senor. The fastest horse i ever saw. Pat Eddery left his brain in the locker room that day. The Derby. The only race he lost

Dessert Orchard, ashame the Gran National is run in the wrong direction.

Another beautiful racecourse lost to the all weather nonsense.

Mill reef ..the horse that began my love affair with him and horse racing ..I was 7 when this race began ...and I've lived and breathed horse racing ever since...many so many interesting and beautiful horse racing people...I'm truly blessed xx

Poor Crisp n R.Pitman...being swallowed up by Red Rum in d.last half.furlong...

51.yrs ago...Bloody hell...😂😂😂

Red Rum d.Greatest horse to run at Aintree giant fences... Love Rummy❤❤❤

I trained Niccolo Polo.

All those that have a go at Starkey watch this

Only piggott could do that

The greatest classic jockey of all time. There's no doubt about that.

What a stride old Vic had .amazing. certainly went under the radar to an extent because it was the French derby but showed there it was a special horse then .magnifique.

He was a great one

Hallelujah. Someone at ITV must have been listening. For the first time in many years, I read in the ITV schedule that 3 races from Nottingham are due to be shown live on Sunday June 2nd.

My joint ever favourite Racehorse( Bustino ). She was amazing. Happy Happy days. RIP Girl.

Fantastic.

Thanks Ed for the upload mate👍

Golden age of jump racing, if your old enough to remember it

Why on earth did they employ that stupid strategy at the Derby. Left the poor horse with too much to do and still he nearly won.

What a horse

Never forget that race, popsi's joy was one of my fav horses back then, and with Lester on board I won a good few quid that day.. great memories..

Amazing racing days! Great Britain!

Walter and Shergar the unbeatable team

I was 12 and a half and had been gutted when it fell at bechers the year before but knew he would win when he jumped it this time. Dunwoody was by far the best jockey of his generation.

Triptych was a legend.
