Nick Rockett led home an extraordinary one-two-three for trainer Willie Mullins at 33-1 in Saturday’s Grand National. Ridden by the trainer’s son, Patrick, Nick Rockett beats last year’s winner I Am Maximus with Grangeclare West third. The winning horse is still registered in the ownership of Stewart and Sadie Andrew, and though Sadie died of cancer in December 2022, she had been the one who wanted a horse in training with Willie Mullins as they were from the same part of Ireland.
