This animal rights profile has been set up as a tribute and memory space to one of the greatest Equine Legends that ever lived.
The Grand National Super Hero. The small horse with a soul and courage that still lives on even today long after his death.
RED RUM
This site was started by Melita Morgan, British Actress, in devotion to Red Rum her dearest Equine Hero.
I have loved and adored Red Rum ever since I was a small child.
Melita with Shamus May 2008
Rummy as he was adoringly known won The Grand National a record Three times in 1973, 1974 and 1977, A RECORD NEVER BEATEN.
I believe if the Grand National is to continue, I think it should be made safer, I do not promote the Grand National, but the greatness of Red Rum, and what can be achieved when a horse is not just . . 'written off' or sent for slaughter due to some imperfections.

Rummy suffered for most of his life with a debilitating disease of the hoof, which most race horses would have been struck off for, but with the love, devotion, skill and gut instincts of the great GINGER McCAIN, Rummy was often trained in the sea, to great results, and the rest is history. This disease never faultered Rummy's Courage.
Red Rum died on October 18th 1995 at the grand age of 30.
He is rightly buried at Anitree, with his head pointing to the winning post.
Here is a news broadcast about Red Rums Passing

MAY THE MEMORY OF RED RUM, live forever and serve as a reminder to man,THAT WOULD SHOULD NOT BE TOO HASTY to under-estimate . . .ANY ANIMAL.
