Grand National 2023: Red Rum stable seeking Aintree triumph on 50th anniversary of legend’s first victory

The stable forever synonymous with the legendary Red Rum will have its first runner in the Randox Grand National for eight years on the 50th anniversary of the three-time winner’s first success.

Minella Trump is being prepared for the £1 million race by Donald McCain whose late father Donald ‘Ginger’ McCain trained Red Rum to become an Aintree immortal.

McCain has enjoyed Grand National success of his own, winning the famous race in 2011 with Ballabriggs, while his dad trained Red Rum to win the race in 1973, 1974 and 1977 and won the race again in 2004 with Amberleigh House.
