RIP Champion 🌹

Still makes me cry and gives me goosebumps to this day, my grandad, called Arthur as it goes;) passed away earlier that year, we all got on and screamed it round, I don’t remember anything after the last fence as I was sure he had won and I hit the floor and cried like a baby, great memories. RIP Champion x

Bless you. My grandad was named Arthur, died when I was 8 years old, long time ago. Only backed it cause of the name. Can admit myself there was tears when it won. Miss you grandad 😥😥

That jump at the second last was enormous

[@jimrobertson9011]

One for Arthur was brilliant that day, made more money on Saint are 50/1 ew, also got me the placepot up, never forget Davy russell pushing him up at the elbow, was delighted when he won the next two nationals on the mighty little tiger

! THANK YOU VERY MUCH! 👍 👍 😃

[@tracyhodgkins7516]

I had a couple of quid each way on One For Arthur and did pretty well out of it as I recall. Brilliant horse. RIP. I also backed Corach Rambler this year, so I’ve been lucky. Years ago, before there was online betting, I sort of picked Corbiere to win, but my Dad, who sadly is no longer with us, had already been out to the betting shop and wouldn’t go out again. I enjoyed reminding him for years that Corbiere won 😂

Something similar with Mon Mome. I remember picking it and getting a milky bar for it while he got 100 quid. Now my dad keeps claiming he fancied it and it wasn't me. He's never fancied a 100/1 shot in his life, and he'd never put 1 quid on a horse he fancies in his life either, especially at those odds.

Anybody else here from Desert Island Discs and their episode with Lucinda Russell???

Darn colic, rest in peace One for Arthur March24th 2023.

[@michaeljohnson5365]

If you look closer there could have been 25 finishers but about 6 pulled up before the last or run in so 19 got round

[@michaeljohnson5365]

RIP One For Arthur say hi to Red Rum for me please

[@michaeljohnson5365]

Shocking 3 of the first 4 are no longer with us

[@williamallan7915]

was Freddie the first

[@williamnightingale2285]

Rubstic in 1979 was the first.

[@gary1961]

Freddie didn't win the National. He came a very close 2nd to Jay Trump in 1965.

[@williamallan7915]
