- Leighton Aspell became the first jockey since Brian Fletcher on Red Rum to win back-to-back Grand Nationals as he scored on Many Clouds for trainer Oliver Sherwood and 79-year-old owner Trevor Hemmings, previously successful with Hedgehunter and Ballabriggs.
Aspell, who had won in 2014 aboard Pineau De Re, steered his 25-1 shot to the front three fences from home and then held off the challenge of Saint Are to win by a length and three-quarters. Monbeg Dude finished third and Alvarado came in fourth. AP McCoy, on his final ride in the race, finished fifth on Shutthefrontdoor.

This horse was my modern day best mate after besty I'm never thought I'd be drawn toma horse like that again but along came many clouds. Backed him always and was gutted beyond belief when he passed after doing what he loved. Rip Many Clouds gone but never forgotten.
I backed Many clouds for the Gold cup and it wasn't to be but it was for this very reason that he flourished in the grand national. Sticking his head down to beat Thistle crack just exemplifies that he truly went out like a boss
that horse that just carried on through the whole thing without a jockey is just goals. He's like "I WILL WIN THIS RACE!" xD
Rip old boy!! Brilliant watching this back, seeing the beast at his brilliant best. Didn't back many clouds this day sadly but it's a superb effort
Still watch this amazing horse now and again. Gave me great memories 💘
RIP Many Clouds! Sleep tight Champ 🙏🏻
What a special horse Many Clouds was. The heart of a lion and jumped like an absolute stag
RIP Many Clouds. What a little super star you were! Beating the mighty Thistlecrack as well.
Many clouds was a great horse he did not die in the national but rip anyway loved him
Dawn Keir he died after beating thistlecrack didn’t he, he had a pulmonary embolism of the lung or something.

Ruby Walsh what a hero! You could see everything he did to go help Balthazar King and Dickie Johnson much better here than on the Channel 4 coverage and then holding the flag on the second circuit. Good to see!
Top class horse in the race but was overlooked by many experts.Ran great for me and jumped even better.
A true great. Many clouds had the heart of a lion. He was a pleasure to watch racing and is still missed. RIP.
LqP
Old Tranquil Sea needs 4m 4f just to warm up these days bless him. He started in virtually last place & picked off his rivals one by one to get a very respectable 7th in the end for a 13 year old. He's in the bright green colours with the noseband
MsVanorak ;D Same as Hello Bud the 14 year old in the 2012 National, which Neptune Collenge won, no spring chicken either, believe he was 12 or 13 that same year. The veterans
My favorite was Shutthefrontdoor! I love how the rider less horses keep running, sometimes around the fences.
I won £170 on Many clouds with my £5 bet. I am absolutely BUZZING.
It was a last minute bet and I hadn't even looked at the description of the horse.
Charla Lala I got £130 on him (also with a £5 bet... different bookies/odds I suppose). Good day for us :)
I put a bet on him for Cheltenham before, but he bungled it. Decided to give him another chance today. Glad I did! He is redeemed in my eyes.
***** Nowadays they don't even feel when they're being whipped. The whip is ultra-light and cushioned and is used to create a sound that the horse reacts to. And if a horse cant go any further it will either be pulled up or refuse to jump - in no way is there animal abuse in the Grand National.
***** Accidents happen in all sports, not just horseracing. I know sports involving animals are more controversial because the animal doesn't get to consent to take part, but most of the time things go smoothly. Accidents are a minority of cases.
In any case, what would you rather see happen? The horse industry shut down? What would happen then to all those horses involved? No one would be able to provide for them anymore, because they'd be out of jobs and money. So then the horses would probably end up in slaughterhouses. That would be even worse than the racing business.
Thanks for the attack Boolaga Bay. I am well aware of how the animals are treated and in the ball park of animal abuse it is right at the bottom.
There are donkeys in Africa who carry heavy loads in the blistering sun for hours with hardly any water or food.
These horses have wonderful lives outside racing and the risk they experience lasts 10 minutes, tops. Horses falling is rare and is getting safer all the time. I feel comfortable taking part in this tradition.
***** The winnings may be different depending how you bet. If you put your £5 on "each way" you get less. I betted for "the win" only, therefore the jackpot was larger.
Many Clouds Again This Year Surly There Is No Threat For Him He Has Got To Get His Second National Come On Many Clouds And Leighton Aspell I Would Like To Wish You All The Best For The National
Had two quid on Many Clouds to win, happy days!
Balthazar King is reported to be up on his feet,he took a proper broadside wallop from the following grey horse.He may have broken several ribs it was later reported.Get well soon BK.
Yeah, he was fine after the fall but when BallyCasey rammed into him he tried to get up, which I fear made his injuries worse.
Imagine if they had taken that second canal turn and Many Clouds fell!
Like daddy mommy james
@@neildodds1548 Where have you been for the last 4 years...........Lol.
Many clouds wonderful horse hope you are up there still doing your best know you will love you xx
Was an amazing day! Me and the wife went. Great atmosphere!
woderful horse, brilliant jockey, excellent trainer & team ! just love the team RIP Many Clouds ( never give up ) enjoy the rest ❤️
Excellent trainer ? Deadly trainer who pushed the horse far too hard.
Rip many clouds one of a kind beautiful horse 🐴
WHAT A HORSE SUPER STAR
Brilliant display, horses are bred for the job.
Y hay gente que practica esto!! No se puede creer
Loved this horse a proper old fashioned chaser rip many clouds
Best GN performance I have seen since Red Rum, awesome weight carried there . I was myself backing The Druids Nephew but alas
I love the horse that just went for it without a jockey.
Great to see ballycasey’s jockey rushing over to Balthazar King. Glad to see the little legend was pretty much fine. Won me £140 in 2014
One ov the best nationals I've seen in modern times anyway🐴
I am always like to watch Horse race
I fancied it strongly and knew it was well overdue for an 8 year old to win the GN but with Aspell on his back, I thought it so unlikely as back to back on different horses was virtually unheard of. Same this year with a 7 year old. Wish I did not look at the stats so much
RIP Saint Are ❤️
Broken ribs for Balthazar King, hopefully he's doing okay
+teriadele94 www.horseandhound.co.uk/news/balthazar-king-to-go-back-into-training-508746
teriadele94 thank God I wanted him to win!!
teriadele94 I’d backed him that day and he was going very well on ground he loved.
Hope his jockey, Richard Johnson is okay as well.
Who cares about the horse!,
So asked my 94 year old nan if she fancied a flutter on the national she replied with many clouds £2.50 each way which had me in stitches, she won £213.14 good on her love you nan xx
Scott Fletcher Where did she get odds of over 66/1?
jbo 2000 You could have had 40/1 earlier in the day, I saw nothing higher than 40, betfair it touched 50/1 but thats exchanges and you can't bet e/w.
Scott, hate to be a killjoy but you may have made a calculation error.
Wasn't I that made the calculation error, £213.14 is what I got paid out
The course is a joke
Got it at 40/1 ,,,,, loved that horse
Proper dude that horse, RIP many clouds, tough bugger.
im so exited for this year s its today yey
Most people don’t realize just how BIG the jumps are. 5’ high 12’ wide.
Fantastic weight carrying performance from Many Clouds. Cool as a cucumber ride from Leighton Aspell. But the best result was the fact the battered and bruised warrior Balthazar King got to his feet.
Oh, Balthazar King got away lucky - only some broken ribs. How said that this race is still being run.
Only see this comment today and I’ve watched this race loads of times, Balthazar king indeed how he got up I do not know what a mighty specimen he was ❤
Brilliant horse
second time i have won the grand national the first time was in 2010 with tony mcCoy riding dont push it and this years national with many clouds with a £45 pound win
while i agree that the race isn't as much of a test as it used to be I still think it is one of the toughest races around hence why only half the field completed, yes the have made some fences easier but if we have less equine fatalities it can only be a good thing,
and I am a true horse racing fan.
Sneaky how the tv coverage was avoiding Many Clouds at the finish. Horse was looking unwell and was overheating...imagine if the horse had died...the outrage would have spelled the end for the national.
you are a year too late with that comment mate
IMHO, i feel they have too many horses on the field. They collide at the take off, mid air, and landing. The clip the heels of the horse landing in front of them, and when they do fall and happen to pop up okay, they get slammed and hurt even worse by the fallowing pack. I understand that it is one of the largest races in Europe, but they need to drop the number of horses allowed on the track in a single race... Horse racing can be an exciting time if done right, and heart breaking when catastrophe strikes...
I really hope these horses ain't hurt when they get whipped
And Rest in Peace to Many Clouds, I really hope his condition wasn't brought on by racing :(
@@kig3669 Crops do hurt the horse.
@Michael Demiurgos actually yes they can feel the crop. A horse can feel when a fly lands on them, and they use their tails to flick them away because they get irritated with the flies. A horse can feel being shocked, they feel when a horse fly bites them, and they feel a whip. Do ur research and watch all the videos u can on horses racing and other horse sports. If u watch when a horse is running being repeatedly whipped or whipped hard u can tell by their body language when they're upset. Some might shy from the whip, where they change lead real quick as soon as they see the whip, and that's fear from being whipped. Some might spook, some might put their ears back, some might start to slow down, etc when they're being whipped. There has been horses that have the lead, and others can't catch them, but the horse is still being whipped to go faster. People drug their horses, whip their horses, shock their horses, and find many other inhumane ways of making them win. For instance, Bob Baffert and Amber Cobb r good examples of shitty owners and trainers, who shouldn't be aloud around any animals, especially horses. Many send the horses to slaughter when they can't do the sport they once did. People discard them and act like it's okay to do it. Animals have emotions just like people do. Let me ask u something how would u like it if someone was put on ur back, and raced u against others, while ur being whipped to have the lead and win? Horses don't need to be whipped to win or to control them, anyone who knows horses should know this. I believe horses do like a challenge, and they like to run, jump, and play, but when people do all this extra shit to them, they don't enjoy what they do or r doing.
@Michael Demiurgos there were many researchers about the crop use in race horses and the damage they do to them. The many autopsies performed on race horses showed MASIVE bleedings in the rib and hindquarter areas of the horses that went several muscle layers deep! Do your research and don’t sure that just because crops make noise they don’t do damage to the horse!
@@sacriface777 well, the current whip was developed by the British Horseracing Authority in cooperation with the RSPCA and veterinary institutions and is made of compressed foam. The whip is therefore made to make a noise but hurt. That includes internal injuries.
Some horses are marked with the whip but on average only 1 horse per year. That 1 mark per 92000 runners.
Who can't wait for the 2018 one
The Druid's Nephew and The Rainbow Hunter fell at that fence. I hope they're not injured.
Bless him many clouds
I live over 100 miles from the nearest Bookmakers but this weekend I was in Inverness visiting relatives - I walked into Ladbrokes with about 5 horses vying for my money , I had thought of Cause Of Causes but went with the Gold Cup runner , Many Clouds , picked up £290 this afternoon .
The usual feelings of ' I wish I'd put more on ' went through my mind but hey , I won !
+ScotsWarrior95 imagine that, you walked into ladbrooks
Many clouds literally ran his heart out to beat thistlecrack just before tragedy stuck. What a horse.
these recent nationals are taking a familiar shape, a handful of fallers at the first 3 fences, then a relatively incident free race to bechers 2nd time, then between fence 22 and 28 around 10 pulling up and a couple of fallers because of the excessive gallop
, then at fence 29 its more like a flat race finish with about 10 jockeys riding hard, the horse that outstays the others wins, another thing is because of all the changes u don't get great national horses like west tip and corbierre anymore
True champion winning the national off a high mark....
A truly brilliant winner. R.I.P. MANY CLOUDS.
My mum put £1.50 each-way on Many Clouds and won £80!
I'm glad that Balthazar King is ok.
Little Miss The Hennessy Gold Cup at Newbury has produced stars Like Denman, Bobs Worth, Arkle and now the 2015 Grand National winner, Many Clouds. Another big priced winner. It was not to be for Shutthefrontdoor.
Ruby Walsh's horse came down and I like that Ruby went and looked after Balthazar King
Yeah, he made no mistakes, he just didn't have that mojo of a winning horse. At least we get A.P until the 25th!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I think he should retire now
Well done
RIP many clouds another horse pushed and pushed to make the greed of the human greater,
people forget how good he was also dear saint are another legend
saint are died a few weeks ago, age 15. he had a second career as a show horse.
R,I,P,

ya me están empezando a gustar las carreras de caballos c:)
XD
2:02 Ooohhuch!! ¡Auch! :0
Por qué no muestran la cantidad de caballos lesionados !?
Because it was 0. No horses were fatally injured. One horse was injured but survived and raced again.
2015 was fatality free and thats something to rejoice just as in 1961, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 68, 69, 71, 72, 74, 76, 80, 81, 82, 85, 86, 88 - all fatality free. Horse deaths are very sad but disproportionately and emotively hyped up by those often foaming at the mouth.
I believe the National should be a unique once a year race with stiff fences and connections enter on that basis. However, let's not get carried away that the fences in the 70s and 80s were impossible. 23 horses (the record) finished in 1984 and 22 finished in 1987. Old timers back then said the fences were too soft and not like in the 1930s, 1940s or 1950s - they were right just as we are right now. I dont want to go back to the 1950s, although restoring the ditch at the Canal Turn would slow them right up.
I dont believe we should substitute stiff fences for ever quicker pace as I believe speed kills as horses breast through the fences like Balthazar King. The old fences would have kept him on the take off side and prevented more injury to him and others.
I believe too many horses are left in by Foinavon and the Canal Turn - a problem that is getting worse, but not unique (1974). I recall in 1983 it was even money that half the field will be out by 1st Bechers and as the National was designed for elimination by a very clever course builder I have no problem with it.
Racing is a tough sport and there will always be injuries. Get over it.
While I accept we wont be going back to the old fences any time soon, here is a fatality free Foxhunters over the old fences. Just remember that earlier that day most of the runners in the Topham completed.

grincher2006 You're talking crap. Sounds like some sort of death race 2000 when u talk about too many horses being left by such a such fence. I was there when brown trix was winched out of Bechers brook breaking his shoulder in the process and leading to him dying too. It's not on that a cretin like you thinks another life lost is a price worth paying for your entertainment. I love horse racing but I also love the horses that make the racing possible and they deserve much better treatment. Fences should be made safer, it's no less of a spectacle and whips should be banned and don't tell me I don't know what I'm talking about as I know more than armchair punters like you. Better Horse veterinary provision and some assessment of the horses wellbeing and eligibility to jump this course should be made beyond allowing some selfish careless owner to decide that he fancies his horse having a run around to impress his mates along with a few beers before watching his horse being towed off to the knackers yard.
@@jabhookjabcross4231 brown trix was bad but that jockey should never of rode him he killed him the jockey
What's the best horse to bet for?
I watched this race with the lord of the rings Riders of Rohan soundtrack playing simultaneously, made it so intense!
poor balthazar thrown around like a rag doll at the canal turn.luckily he survived
He was retired from racing yesterday. We wish him a very happy & long retirement
+Lionel Messi totally agree love baltazar
Fantastic news. I was sure he had broken his leg.
You could see he was a the winner with a circuit to go.. Just moments before the race, I remembered the trainer saying before the gold cup "He knows he's King Kong".. So I knew he was the class-act of the race and stuck £12 on at 25's.. and just remember cheering him on like crazy calling him King Kong hahaa :D .. But the biggest relief was Balthazar, he's such a special horse and I'd rather him get up than win a couple tonne on the winner.. for real.. :)

AP Mcoy won the horse whipping contest...wow at the finish he beat STFD like a wayward stepchild...
At one time A.P was so severe with the whip he was sent back to racing school to learn how to use it correctly. He never should have been knighted! The reaction of the death of Gloria Victus was appalling.

It's not going to be banned, and little is going to change, so you are completely wasting your time even commenting on something you know nothing about. Stick to what you know and butt out of what we enjoy

MrNoodle1664 Heh, my mother had The Druid's Nephew. Was starting to get her hopes up after he held the lead for a while, only to be left cursing after he went down. Lucky for her I was backing Many Clouds, so I'll share the nice £130 I got with her.
***** if The Druids Nephew had stayed up he would have won . i backed that horse at cheltenham. they bring him back he possibly will be the winner , that happened to hedge hunter fell , following year 2005 won the race
***** I backed Many Clouds (among others) at Cheltenham, but he bungled it. Decided to give him another chance at the National. He is now redeemed in my eyes.
I see McCoy hammering away at his horse to get fifth or whatever it was.
