# I watched the Grand National in a pub.
There was a false start and as they brought the horses back a particularly frisky grey threw his rider and the trainer struggled like mad to calm him down as the jockey chased after him and eventually, to a rousing cheer in the pub, managed to remount.
The race restarted and all the horses set off except for the grey which just stood there on the starting line, obviously in a horsey grump, to an even bigger cheer.
A had to be there moment but most amusing.
