Grand National champion jockey Sam Waley-Cohen has added another feather to his cap by winning the iconic race on Saturday.
He stunned Aintree with the win aboard 50-1 outside chance Noble Yeats. Success around the racecourse appears to be the latest exploit in the life of Waley-Cohen, whose dental firm - Portman Dental Care - has been valued at £300 million.
Waley-Cohen is also known among more exclusive circles for helping to set up Prince William and Kate Middleton. The 39-year-old hosted a party at his family’s 17th century Oxfordshire mansion in 2007, where Will and Kate reportedly reignited their romance.
