Freewheelin Dylan

Today we are looking back at last year's Irish Grand National with the great race set to take place on bank holiday Monday and with a 150/1 winner sparking a surprise.

The 28 runner race last year saw the likes of Latest Exhibition, Run Wild Fred and Coko Beach be near the top of the market looking to land the 3m5f event.

However it was the outsider of the entire field Freewheelin Dylan that made every yard of the contest under a superb ride by Ricky Doyle.

It saw Dermot McLoughlin land his first ever Irish National and since the race the horse went looking to add the Aintree National to his roster but could only finish seventh.

Enjoy!
