JOHN SMITH'S GRAND NATIONAL

1 Comply Or Die (T J Murphy) 7-1 Jt Fav

2 King Johns Castle (P Carberry) 20-1

3 Snowy Morning (D J Casey) 16-1

4 Slim Pickings (B J Geraghty) 10-1

 

Joint favourite Comply Or Die held off a strong challenge from King Johns Castle to take victory by four lengths in the 2008 Grand National at Aintree.

 

Irish jockey Timmy Murphy rode the David Pipe-trained nine-year-old for his first Grand National win after 11 previous attempts.

 

Snowy Morning claimed third place, while Slim Pickings was fourth.

 

Cloudy Lane, who also started as a 7-1 co-favourite, finished sixth but was never really in contention.
