Helene he was such a lovely horse and very friendly. I was so glad I saw him a few months before he died at his 30th birthday when he paraded at Aintree. I met him so many times the best when I got to meet him at his home at Southport.

Red rums pick up on landing after the jumps is amazing to watch accelerating away so quickly on landing
-
Red Rum a heart of a lion the best steeple chaser ive ever seen what a sporting ICON. Rummy RIP
-
Red Rum was an amazing horse who had an incredible constitution rarely matched in the whole history of thoroughbred racing. Btw thanks a lot for sharing this.
-
It ticks me off that Wikipedia has Red Rum as having "fallen only once". I appreciate they took this from an alternative source on the Internet, but it's still wrong. He unseated his rider. Rummy never went down EVER.
-
We will never see his like again...
-
An absolutely gorgeous horse, very well mannered horse, my niece and nephew literally swung from his lovely neck when he opened a betting office in Rhyl in the 1980's,

Still watching clips of the incomparable Red Rum in amazement on YouTube in September 2022... I never will tire of watching this freak of nature... God Bless you Rummy - and thanks for the memories... RSN...
-
Red Rum was even more amazing if you remember he was bred to be a flat racer and started racing much younger than his rivals before transferring to National Hunt racing. Nothing in his bloodlines should have produced a steeplechaser, let alone one of his calibre.

loved watching this ... what a memory ...what a Horse
-
Horse of the century 👍
-
Fantastic footage! It's great to hear the names of horses I'm only really familiar with through watching recordings of old Grand Nationals.
-
Wish I'd me met him. I only got into horse racing a few years ago, and yet, have fallen in love with this horse. I keep getting goosebumps watching his old races and old clips of him on the beach and trying to kick the cars down the street! And...what a great name! Amazing horse x

Stirring stuff, even after all these years and many re-runs! Rummy still the King of Aintree <3
