that was the classic race where Crisp put up one of the memorable losing grand national performances, jumping for fun with top weight and giving 1 and a half stone to a legend in Red Rum, just going down by less than a length..

Crisp was one of the best 2 milers around and the fact that he ran so well over a trip twice his optimum (4 1/2 miles) is just incredible..
