Red Rum, the Grand National’s favourite famous horse
The grand national has always been associated with fun. However, for alot of people the association with a certain horse has always been made. Red Rum was by far the most successful horse in recent grand national history. The only horse to win three times in 1973, 1974, and in 1977. He also came in second in the two intervening years, 1975 and 1976. These days you will see many grand national marketing campaigns with cartoon characters of Red Rum, owing to the love and affections for the horse that has maintained since his heyday (no pun intended!). Roll on the National!
