We spoke to winning jockey Daryl Jacob before his flying start to Grand National 2018

You can’t film at the Grand National without grabbing an interview with a top jockey can you? Not only did we find one, but this jockey has won the big one before.

Daryl Jacob rode Neptune Collonges to victory in the Grand National in 2012 and this year he’s aiming high once again with Ucello Conti in the big race on Saturday.

Already today, day one of the Randox Health Grand National, Daryl steered L’Ami Serge and We Have A Dream to victory and managed to pick up some place money for punters as he followed home Might Bite aboard Bristol De Mai.

Watch to see how it feels to prepare for the world’s biggest steeplechase in our chat above.
