Grand national quiz.
1. What is the real first name of legendary Red Rum trainer Ginger McCain, and his son who trained Ballabriggs to victory in 2011?
2. Which horse won the race in 1965?
3. Surname only. Which jockey took full advantage of Devon Loch's collapse to ride ESB to flukey glory?
This was great fun i think.
