Aintree to commemorate Ginger McCain with a bronze bust The memorial will will sit overlooking the parade ring. Red Rum, who won the National three times and forged the inextricable link between trainer and the race, is already commemorated at Aintree in bronze in the old paddock, which is now known as the Red Rum garden. It would probably much amuse Ginger, who was well known for his stringent politically incorrect views, that the artist commissioned to produce the work, Nigel Boonham, counts two archbishops, a cardinal and Diana, Princess of Wales among his best-known works. He has also sculpted John McEnroe and Lord Coe. Son Donald McCain said: "When Aintree discussed the idea with us, we were thrilled they had chosen to commemorate his achievements with a bronze portrait bust. It is fitting it will be a Aintree, a place dear to his heart. I'm sure we'll feel great pride unveiling the bust for all to see at the Grand National meeting in April.
