Aspell Wins Back-To-Back Grand Nationals

Leighton Aspell has won successive Grand Nationals after riding 25-1 shot Many Clouds to victory at Aintree. He is the first jockey to win back-to-back Nationals since Brian Fletcher on Red Rum in 1973 and 1974 - and the first to do so on different horses since the 1950s. Saint Are was a close second, Monbeg Dude third and Alvarado fourth. Many Clouds was said to have had a "wobble" after the race but recovered quickly.
