Description
The Grand National and all things Aintree are pored over in this week's edition of The Front Page.
Lee Mottershead, Jonathan Harding and Maddy Playle look back at I Am Maximus's second success in the sport's biggest race and reflect on a Grand National that was filled with drama.
The rest of the Aintree festival is also discussed in detail in a show that examines the disappointing seasonal reappearance of Derby favourite Pierre Bonnard and the sport's latest attempt to persuade the government to think again about affordability checks.
