Jockey Paul Townend wins the Grand National for the second time on I Am Maximus
I Am Maximus became a two-time Grand National winner as trainer Willie Mullins celebrated his third consecutive victory in the race at Aintree.
The 2024 winner and last year's runner-up came into the race as the 9-2 favourite and backed that up by finishing ahead of Iroko, Jordans and Johnnywho.
It made Irishman Mullins, who won the race for a fourth time in total, the first trainer since Vincent O'Brien between 1953 and 1955 to win in three straight years.
The win means that JP McManus is now the leading owner with four wins in the historic race - backing up the victories of Don't Push It in 2010, Minella Times in 2021 and I Am Maximus in 2024.
