Favorite I am Maximus has won the Grand National at Aintree

I Am Maximus has won the Grand National at Aintree for Willie Mullins and Paul Townend.

The Cork jockey guided the joint favourite home ahead of 28-to-1 shot Delta Work in the iconic race.

This year's field was shortened in a bid to avoid any fatalities and the Jockey Club say all horses returned safely.

Last year's winner Corach Rambler unseated his rider at the first fence.
