THERE was agony for thousands of patriotic punters as Scottish favourite Corach Rambler unseated its rider on the FIRST as it bidded to repeat last year’s Grand National win.
Derek Fox had powered home to triumph on the 8/1 shot last year and again there was plenty of support on the Scottish horse to complete a remarkable back-to-back double.
But it didn’t take long for that dream to end up in tatters as Fox was unseated at the very first fence.
Instead, it was I am Maximus, the 7/1 joint favourite, who came through to take the crown.
