HISTORY! Rachael Blackmore wins the 2021 Randox Grand National aboard Minella Times

Wow! I was cheering the partnership on live, and now watching it back again just focusing on Rachael's ride, I couldn't help but grin and cheer them on all over again. Absolutely chuffed for Rachael - so deserved, and some lovely jumping from Minella! Shame there wasn't the crowd to see them home. Condolences to all the folks who would have watched this event with friends and family who are no longer here, may they rest in peace.

Proper dangerous. Still don't believe it's like it is still. I mean you can still have hurdles all the horses would clear easy and there would be a winner because its fastest horse wins. Difficult hurdles they barely clear sees them and the jockeys get injured or die. Keeping things traditional is just an excuse for lack of safety.

[@eddabbs8690]

I respect your point of view and I firmly believe no one wants to see the horses hurt or worse (nor the jockeys). It's difficult to quantify in many respects, but I have a real love for jump racing. I have been riding for over 30 years and have schooled pointers, hunters and done some xc. I have a real love for horses. All I will say is that 99% of people in racing, at whatever level, have a real love for horses and the horses themselves, magnificent beasts that they are, have probably the best lives any domesticated or farmed animals have. Of that I have no doubt. I guess one could argue against domestication or farming, but where would that leave us? For me the whole gambling part of the industry is incidental (though I do like to bet on course as part of a day out - the only off course bets on any sport I place is the Gold Cup or The National). The actual racing is only part of it. To see the string out on the gallops on a sunny winter morning is a sight to behold and stirs something in people who have no knowledge of horses or racing. I would hate to lose any of that. RIP The Long Mile (and those that have gone before him) absolutely. Peace ✌

Phenomenal result for years women jockeys got the odd ride on a rank outsider with little chance of even completing then in recent times Carrie Ford Rosemary Henderson Nina Carberry and Katie Walsh got on better quality horses. Nowadays trainers like Nichols Mullins and De Bromhead deserve credit giving the rides on fancied hprses to jockeys like Bryony Frost and Rachel Blackmore. Followed the National since a boy in the 70,s .After Red Rum (RECORD WILL NEVER BE BROKEN). And Aldiniti with Bob Champion (A FAIRYTALE VICTORY) That victory by Rachel will live long in the memory well done Girl . And a big mention to Henry De Bromhead what a handler a Champion Hurdle ,Queen Mother Champion Chase the 1,2 in the Gold Cup and the 1,2 in the Grand National in the same season unbelievable. Thank God she picked the right one after having the choice in the Gold Cup and picking the wrong one.

Faultless performance from the winner. Jumped every fence perfectly. Rachel Blackmore has a knack of getting the horse into a rhythm leading up to a fence and landing without losing momentum. Very balanced and pivots her weight equally along the length of the horse. The only other thing I see is she keeps her elbows in, much more than the other jockeys which makes her more aerodynamic.

[@eddabbs8690]

Well done Rachel Blackmore. She's made history. I think it is time, and I'm sure that she would agree, that we put this gender thing to one side. Ladies have been the equal of men in all other equine disciplines for many years now. If you consider who comes into equine pursuits at the bottom end you will find that it is overwhelmingly female, it is therefore actually surprising that (A) this hasn't happened earlier and (B) men are more than competitive across the equine disciplines, despite being greatly outnumbered at entry level. I guess my answer would be that it takes a lot of bravery and a requirement to be very tough to keep getting back on after frequent "unintentional dismounts". I speak as a rider of over 30 years! Rachel, Bryony et al have these requirements in spades. More power to them I say.

[@CharlotteWeb100]

I've often wondered why we don't have more female jockeys even on the flat it seems unusual considering that generally women would be more inclined or interested early on and be physically smaller, lighter and whatnot. If I didn't reach 5'11 by my early teens I'd have loved to race but sadly I was already way too tall by 13yrs. In other sports such as eventing women seldom win but when they do it's purely on merit. The reason they don't often is because they're such bloody big strong horses and hard to keep in line and tight over XC fences. Jump jockeys like this are another level altogether and Rachael deserves every bit of credit for her superb ride.

[@frankspencer6935]

Bryony Frost would of won on that horse, it was a steering job barring a fall. If you put the females alongside a McCoy in a driving finish they wouldn't fare so well. The bookmakers love all this hype, no jockey shows a profit long-term. When I back Hollie Doyle her other half wins, same happened in the Gold Cup, a team orders barging match.

[@eddabbs8690]

@@frankspencer6935 I agree with much of what you say, though I would stop short of calling the longest and toughest horse race on the planet, over 4m 2f and 30 fences, with 40 runners all competing for the one prize, a steering exercise. Rachel Blackmore got that class of horse because she is in very good form. I am as much against the hype that, I have no doubt, these ladies are too. But that's the media for you. I grant that on equal ability horses on a hard and physical run in, a male jockey may win out due to those circumstances. But Rachel in this race and at Cheltenham, and Bryony in the King George, keep proving the legitimate doubters and the outright cynical wrong.

[@eddabbs8690]

@@CharlotteWeb100 Too bad you got to tall to race. I'm no fan of the hype that surrounds this particular gender issue (nor any of the other gender issues in general life!) I would guess that most of the detractors and cynics in this comment section and many others, that comment negatively on female jockeys, have never been near a horse in their lives. I have schooled pointers, hunters and competed in xc at an average level (usually employing the 'point your horse at gallop toward the fence and hope for the best' method - and that is only partly a joke 🤣) so I have some idea of what it takes. I would wager that Rachel Blackmore, Bryony Frost et al have more metaphorical 'balls' then all of their detractors put together. 😊
