The 1919 National was won by the Poethlyn, ridden by Ernest Piggott. The pair had won an unofficial National at Gatwick in 1918 and on the back of this started 11/4 favourites, the shortest starting odds of any Grand National winner to date.http://www.horseracingcollector.com/whats-worth-grand-national-race-cards-programmes/ What's It Worth?
