Trainer Paul Nolan has been left 'heartbroken' after the death of horse Discorama at Saturday's Grand National, the third to die at Aintree this week.
For the first time in three years, a packed crowd was allowed at the famous Liverpool racecourse for the legendary steeplechase, which this year was won by 50/1 shot Noble Yeats, ridden by Sam Waley-Cohen. It was an emotional win for the jockey, who'd already announced his retirement prior to the Grand National and dedicated his win to his dad and his brother Tom who died from cancer aged just 20.
A total of fifteen horses finished this year's Grand National, with Any Second Now in second and Delta Work in third. One of those that didn't finish was Discorama, having been pulled up by jockey Bryan Cooper.
