Tommy Carberry, who won the Grand National as a trainer and jockey, has died aged 75.

Carberry, the father of jockeys Paul, Nina and Philip, was one of jump racing’s great figures.

He won successive Cheltenham Gold Cups on L’Escargot in 1970 and 1971 and won the National on the same horse, when beating Red Rum in 1975.

Carberry trained Bobbyjo, ridden by Paul, to win the big race at Aintree in 1999.
