It was the perfect swansong for the retiring jockey Sam Waley-Cohen as he reigned supreme on board Noble Yeats in the 2022 Grand National.
There were emotional scenes after they crossed the finishing line as Noble Yeats pipped Any Second Now ridden by Mark Walsh and Delta Work who placed third.
Victory represented a fairytale story for Waley-Cohen as he bowed out in style, with family members present to witness the feat.
