Grand National presenter explains the ‘miracles’ that kept horses alive during race
ITV presenter Ed Chamberlin has credited Aintree staff with helping to save two horses who came into difficulty at the Grand National. Broadway Boy ran prominently for much of the contest but took a horrific fall at the 25th fence. He received immediate care on the track before walking into a horse ambulance for further treatment.
Celebre D’Allen, meanwhile, collapsed on the course after he was pulled up towards the end of the race. He also walked into a horse ambulance before heading back to his stables for more treatment. His jockey, Micheal Nolan, was later handed a 10-day suspension for not pulling up the horse earlier on.
