Ginger McCain, trainer of the legendary Grand National winner Red Rum, has died aged 80 after suffering from cancer.
McCain guided "Rummy" to three victories and two second places in a five-year period during the 1970s. He won a fourth National with Amberleigh House in 2004. McCain's wife Beryl said: "Donald - Ginger as we all knew him - passed away peacefully in his sleep after a short illness this morning (Monday) - he would have been 81 on Wednesday.”
