He’ll get plenty but, such as Red Rum, that horse positively thrives at Aintree, which makes the obstacles look easy as he glanced about them.
And if those people who grew up seeing’Rummy’ in the 1970s will think of him you need to be a certain age so there is a legend great to remember him at all.
