RACHAEL BLACKMORE rewrote the history books by becoming the first female jockey to win the Randox Grand National. Blackmore, 31, partnered Minella Times to victory for legendary owner JP McManus and Irish at trainer trainer Henry de Bromhead at Aintree.

Blackmore said: “I don’t feel male or female right now, I don’t even feel human! This is just unbelievab­le.”
