I Am Maximus confirmed greatness at Aintree on Saturday by regaining the Grand National .
A valiant battle in the final strides saw Jordans reeled in and I Am Maximus emulate Red Rum by regaining the Grand National.
Jordans looked set for a famous win when kicking for the line before the last fence, but ran out of steam before eventually finishing third behind Iroko.
The JP McManus-owned top weight I Am Maximus won the race in 2024 before finishing second in 2025.
The 10-year-old was the 9/2 favourite after a late gamble before the off, and ridden by jockey Paul Townend.
For trainer Willie Mullins, it was a third straight win in the race and fourth in total, while McManus has now won a record four Grand Nationals.
The much-fancied trio of Panic Attack, Jagwar and Grangeclare West did not finish, as just 16 of the 34 starters saw the finish line.
