UNBELIEVABLE Finish at the Grand National Horse Race (1956) | Sporting History
One of the most famous Grand Nationals of all time where the late Dick Francis gallops towards the finish line on HM Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother's horse, Devon Loch. Dick is just yards away from the finish line and is undoubtedly about to win the race when Devon inexplicably jumps up and falls to his stomach. It looks as though the horse sees a fence in front of him. ESB, the horse behind, swoops past Devon Loch who is still scrambling to his feet and wins the Grand National. The Queen Mother famously said, Oh that's racing and Dick Francis retired from racing the following year and turned his hand to crime writing.

UK: LIVERPOOL: GRAND NATIONAL PREPARES TO BEGIN AFTER BOMB SCARE
English/Nat
Massive security was in place Monday as officials prepared for the running of the Grand National in England.
The world's most famous steeplechase was due to start 48 hours after a suspected I-R- A bomb alert forced its abandonment.
Police with sniffer dogs combed all corners of the Aintree racecourse before letting people into the grounds for the showcase event, scheduled to start at 1700 (1600 GMT).
Police banned all vehicles from parking at or near the Aintree racetrack in the north- west English port city of Liverpool Monday.
They also warned that all racegoers entering the area were likely to be searched.
Racegoers were told to leave their cars at a marina six kilometres (four miles) away and take free shuttle buses to Aintree.
Officials estimated that only 10-thousand spectators would attend Monday's running of the gruelling, 30-fence, 7 point 2 kilometres (4 and a half mile) race.
Thirty-six of the original field of 38 horses were expected to line up for the start.
Only Belmont King and Over the Stream were pulled out.
The showcase event was scheduled to start at 1700 (1600 GMT).
In a symbol of defiance to terrorism, Buckingham Palace announced that Princess Anne would return for the rescheduled race.
Britain's Princess Royal was among the 70-thousand people evacuated from the course Saturday after two bomb warnings.
The police officer in charge of the security operation at Aintree explained what security measures were being taken.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
Certainly over the last 48 hour, as you appreciate some intensive policing operations have actually taken place. Starting this morning, we have started searching the stands again with police search teams, police explosive dogs. They will then be moving into the public concourses and then we will be searching the whole course to ensure that it is sterile before we actually allow anyone back onto the course.
SUPER CAPTION: Superintendent Ian Latimer, Race Commander
But he said there could be no guarantee of a problem-free race.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
Q: What guarantee can you give us that it won't happen again?
A: I can't give any guarantees. What I can say is that we've looked at a number of contingencies quite extensively. As the police commander, I do have a number of options available to me, and if necessary I will consider them.
SUPER CAPTION: Superintendent Ian Latimer, Race Commander
The Grand National is the biggest gambling event in British sport, with an estimated 75 (m) million pounds (120 million dollars) in wagers on this year's race.
Bookmakers said bets from Saturday were still valid Monday.
On Saturday, police evacuated the course when two bomb warnings were received 30 minutes before the start of the 150th running of the race at Aintree.
Police said the callers used recognised Irish Republican Army code words.
Explosives experts blew up three suspected objects but said they turned out to be harmless and that no bombs had been found.
No one immediately claimed responsibility for the telephoned warnings.
But Prime Minister John Major said Saturday he had no doubt the I-R-A fighting British rule in Northern Ireland was responsible.
The warnings came two days after police found two I-R-A bombs planted on the M-6 motorway in central England near Birmingham.
Thousands of race goers from all over England were stranded in Liverpool Saturday night while waiting to get their cars back from Aintree parking lots.
But it is hoped things will run smoothly on Monday - one racing commentator was optimistic about the anticipated event.

Aintree Racecourse, Liverpool, UK
Dick Francis' autobiography The Sport of Queens describes the steeplechase course at Aintree - first Grand National in 1839. Using Google street view I was able to see what riding the course would be like. The race is 4 miles, 2 furlongs and 74 yards long.
UK: AINTREE RACE COURSE: BOMB SCARE AT GRAND NATIONAL UPDATE
English/Nat
The Grand National, the world's most famous steeplechase, will be run Monday just two days after it was abandoned by bomb warnings that forced 70-thousand people to be evacuated from the Aintree race course.
The 150th Aintree running of the famous race, first staged in 1839, will be begin at 5 p.m. (1600 GMT) Monday after being cancelled for the first time in its history.
British racing is still in shock after the cancellation of its showcase event.
Early Sunday morning saw hundreds of race-goers waiting patiently for Merseyside police to unlock the gates of Aintree's car parks.
The crowd of 70-thousand was evacuated after two coded bomb warnings -- believed to be the work of the Irish Republican Army -- were received just 30 minutes before the scheduled start of the race.
The news was all over the papers today, and not just on the sports pages.
Every hotel room in Liverpool was full, forcing many fans to spend the night in emergency accommodation across the city.
Some however were luckier, with total strangers putting people up for the night.
SOUNDBITE:
Q: What sort of night have you had, what's it been like?
A: We were very lucky in that we got somewhere to stay. We did have a two hour drive around Southport in a taxi trying to find somewhere. Then we phoned the local radio station and someone had phoned in and there was four of us and they put us up for the night. They gave us beds, baths cups of tea, everything.
SUPER CAPTION: Voxpop
SOUNDBITE:
Some 7-thousand vehicles are in the process of being checked individually. Whilst that is a significant task in anybody's language, what I can say to members of the public is their vehicles .. the course will be available to them reclaim their vehicles sometime today. I can't be more specific than that but people will be able to get their vehicles and their property back today.
SUPER CAPTION: Paul Stephenson, Assistant Chief Constable, Merseyside Police
SOUNDBITE:
We would however, like to announce that the Martel Grand National, which had to be postponed yesterday because of a bomb threat, will be rescheduled for tomorrow, Monday the 7th of April at 5pm.
SUPER CAPTION: Charles Barnett, Managing Director of Aintree Race Course
SOUNDBITE:
Well, the Grand National is a once in a year occasion for many High Street punters -- about 15 (m) million people would've had a bet and probably up to 70 (m) million pounds turned over. All of those bets will stand on the race when it run on Monday afternoon. Obviously if punters had a bet on Saturday on a horse that now doesn't line up, then those bets are refundable and their stakes will come back to them.
SUPER CAPTION: David Hood, spokesman for William Hill
SOUNDBITE:
Almost certainly. I think people will find this was a distraction for them on Saturday. It is an inconvenience. They won't be pleased about it but they will still want to have that once a year flutter. So I'm sure that 99.9 per cent of bets will run onto Monday afternoon.

Improbable Finish to The 1967 Grand National Horse Race | Sporting History
The 1967 Grand National was the scene of one the most notorious pile ups in Grand National history. Foinavon had odds of 100/1 to win the race. Even his owner Cyril Watkins did not bother to attend Aintree because the chances of a win were wholly improbable. As expected, Foinavon did not play a competitive part in the race until at the 23rd fence, a loose horse cut across the riders causing all the horses to either fall, unseat their riders or refuse to jump. Foinavon and his rider, John Buckingham, are so far behind that they manage to bypass the shambles, jump the fence and take a lead of 200 yards. Although most riders were able to remount, no one managed to quite catch up with horse and rider. Sadly no owner or trainer were in the winners enclosure to congratulate them!
