Jockey Patrick Mullins won the Grand National on Nick Rockett as his trainer father Willie Mullins took the first three places in the race at Aintree.

The 33-1 chance denied last year's winner I Am Maximus, who finished second, with Grangeclare West in third. Favourite Iroko was fourth, ahead of Meetingofthewaters.

It was an emotional victory for winning owner Stewart Andrew, whose late wife Sadie died in December 2022, five days after watching Nick Rockett in his first race.

Broadway Boy had led for much of the race but suffered a crashing fall on the second circuit.

An initial update from the Jockey Club said Broadway Boy and Celebre D'Allen - who was pulled up - were being assessed on course by vets.

Nick Rockett galloped away from top weight I Am Maximus after the final fence to win by two and a half lengths.

There was a further half-length back to Grangeclare West in third.

"It's everything I've dreamed of since I was a kid," said the winning rider, who is an amateur jockey.

"I know it's a cliche but when I was five or six years old, I was reading books about the National and watching black and white videos of Red Rum. To put my name there is very special."
