The 2008 Grand National at Aintree has been won by Comply or Die, from Ireland. The trainer for the winning horse was D E Pipe.

King Johns Castle , who was also Irish, finished approximately four lengths behind the winner. He was also trained by D E Pipe.

The Jockey for the winning horse commented on the victory. He said “It’s everybody’s dream to win the National. David [the trainer] prepared him fabulously and said he was a certainty and wouldn’t get beat, so what more can you ask for?”
