Jockey Mark Walsh hailed Any Second Now's brave effort in defeat in the 2022 Grand National.
The 15-2 favourite was right alongside the winner Noble Yeats up the run-in, before he had to settle for second place. It was the second year in a row the ten-year-old had finished in the money at Aintree.
After a good run through, Walsh timed the challenge to perfection, but they could not battle past their lightly weighted rival on the run to the line.It was a fourth consecutive success for a horse trained in Ireland and the biggest shock of all of them, as Noble Yeats returned at odds of 50-1.
