1951 Grand National
The 1951 Grand National was the 105th renewal of the Grand National horse race that took place at Aintree Racecourse near Liverpool, England, on 7 April 1951.
A crowd of 250,000 people saw the race won by Nickel Coin at odds of 40/1. The nine-year-old mare was ridden by jockey John Bullock and trained by Jack O'Donoghue. Royal Tan, who would go on to win in 1954, finished second, and Derrinstown was third. Of the 36 runners, only three completed the course. All of the horses returned safely to the stables.
In the long history of the Grand National only 13 mares have won the race, Nickel Coin being the most recent.
