The current holder looked to face a stiff task before Aintree's three-day meeting but he went on to land five Grade One wins, a Grade Two and the Topham alongside his incredible feat of providing five of the first seven home in the Grand National, meaning he took home the lion's share of £1million in that race alone. All of a sudden, Dan Skelton's lead is down to just over £120,000 and Mullins is now taking dead aim at Ayr.
