Grand National result: I Am Maximus wins at Aintree ahead of Delta Work
The 7-1 joint favorite triumphed by seven and a half lengths at Aintree from runner-up Delta Work, with Minella Indo third and Galvin fourth.
"What an unbelievable race and unbelievable horse," said Townend.
There was early drama in the famous race as last year's winner Corach Rambler unseated jockey Derek Fox at the first fence.
What happened to your Grand National horse?
Mac Tottie, who was pulled up, was treated by vets and walked onto a horse ambulance before being taken to the stables for further assessment. There were no concerns about any other runners
Of the 32 starters, 21 horses completed the race - the highest number across the finish line since 1992.
Rachael Blackmore looked like she might secure a second National win as Minella Indo challenged, while Kitty's Light finished fifth for Welsh trainer Christian Williams, whose young daughter Betsy is being treated for leukemia.
Sixth went to amateur jockey David Maxwell, riding Ain't That A Shame, a horse he bought earlier this year and a purchase which enabled him to ride in the race for the first time.
But it was the team of Mullins, Townend and owner JP McManus who triumphed as I Am Maximus led home an Irish 1-2-3-4.
At the 13th attempt, Townend claimed his first National win while it was a second for Mullins after Hedgehunter in 2005 and McManus' third triumph following Don't Push It (2010) and Minella Times (2021).
Victory means Mullins is now favorite to win the British trainers' championship, which concludes at the end of this month.
"Aintree is the first race you see, it's the first race everyone in racing wants to see. Fantastic stuff, you just couldn't make it up," said Mullins.
Last year's race had been delayed by 14 minutes after animal rights activists entered the track, but there was no disruption this time.
The number of runners had been reduced from a maximum of 40 following a safety review.
Other safety measures included a standing start for the race, which went off at the first time of asking, a reduction in height to one of the fences and added foam and rubber toe boards on every fence.
#winner: IAmMaximus#runner-up: DeltaWork#jockey: PaulTownend#course: Aintree#race: GrandNational#year: 2024#surprise: (if I Am Maximus wasn't favored)#dominant: (if I Am Maximus won by a large margin)#jockey's first: (if this is Paul Townend's first Grand National win)#mud: (if the race conditions were muddy)

Saying Farewell to One of Racing’s Greats
By Michael Hozjan
On Easter Saturday race track owners, race team owners, racers, race fans and almost everyone associated in the racing community got together in Cornwall Ontario to bid a fond farewell to one of racing’s greatest.
Above:Race teams brought their cars out in memory of the king of announcing
He didn’t own a race team, he didn’t own a racecar nor track, he never even raced himself, but Brian Mulligan will be missed by thousands on both sides of the Canada/US border. Brian you see, was a track announcer. Let me correct that he was THE track announcer. Mr. Mulligan (he’d probably hate me for calling him Mister – he was that kind of down-to-earth guy) started his announcing career in the mid sixties at the now defunct - turned airport -Cedar Dragway, just west of Montreal, he moved on to Napierville, south of Montreal in 1966. In no time at all, his friendly persona and his ability to announce in English and French quickly wielded him into other racing disciplines.
Brian’s voice soon echoed throughout Canada and the United States. In 1970 when Sanair International opened, Brian was the obvious choice for owner Jacques Guertin. A year later when Guertin snagged the NHRA to host a Canadian event, Brian was “ The Voice of the Grand Nationals”. The NHRA must have liked what they heard as in 1972 he was asked to announce the Winter Nationals in Pomona, California. That was just the beginning, he’d go on to the Gatornationals in Gainesville Florida, as well as drag races in Columbus, Ohio, and Syracuse New, York.
Above: Two drag racing icons, Brian shares a laugh with Linda Vaughn, Miss Hurst at the inaugural Canadian Drag Racing Reunion. Brian was inducted into the Canadian Drag Racing Hall of Fame in 2016
Back home he was also a reporter for CTV’s Montreal station, CFCF, bringing stock car racing into our living rooms.
Not one to hibernate, in winter snowmobile races beckoned him and he became as popular in that segment as he was in automobiles. In summer when he wasn’t barking out at car races, he’d be covering motorcycle races and boat races, including the inaugural Long Sault Regatta.
Above: One of the hazards of announcing in the cold
I met Brian when I was 17, not at a racetrack but at Action Motorsports, a speed shop in Montreal’s Rosemount district. His friendly demeanor went above and beyond that of a simple salesman, he made you feel like the whole store relied on you.
It would be a couple of years later while I attended my first drag race at Sanair International that I swore I recognized the voice coming over the loudspeakers. In later years, with his multitude of pages on drivers’ statistics, he would be instrumental in helping me with my articles in racing magazines and newspapers.
Above: Brian was at home whether on an oval or drag strip
When I was asked to run Montreal’s most popular cruise night I knew I needed and needed a charismatic, bilingual emcee, Brian Mulligan was a no brainer and he didn’t mind the 100 km commute once a week.
Above: Doing what he did best, this time at a Montreal Cruise Night
His heart was as big as it can get as he supported several charities, volunteering his time to fundraising and helping the community.
He suffered a brain tumor in 2011, something that would be fatal to the average person, yet Brian bounced bag to the surprise and chagrin of his doctors, and so over the last few years he’s been announcing at tracks close to home, including Cornwall Raceway and Mohawk International Raceway in Hogansburg New York, across the river from his hometown.
Above: Never to be taken too seriously, Brian was always smiling
Brian didn’t take life to seriously, always smiling and hamming it up whenever the occasion arose. Like donning a red ball on his nose in the middle of announcing. His heart was as big as it can get, always ready to support a charity and volunteer his time to fundraising and helping the community.
Over the years Brian was inducted into multiple sports and motorsports Halls of Fame.
Above and below: Just two of the dozens of awards Brian received
On March 1st 2023 Brian moved on to announce the races in heaven, having succumbed to Alzheimers. He’s survived by his wife Huguette, brother Richard, and two sons Daniel and Patrick.
Above: The Mulligan name continues in racing circles with Brian’s son Patrick
Patrick continues in the family racing tradition marketing racing fuel, promoting and consulting races, teams and drivers alike, and like his father is always smiling.
