11:00AM, APR 12 2021 Leading trainer Dan Skelton has lauded Henry de Bromhead and his team, likening their unprecedented clean sweep of the spring s major prizes to the domination Michael Jordan s Chicago Bulls enjoyed in their heyday. Six NBA titles in the 1990s made the Bulls a household name – something the County Waterford-based De Bromhead and his go-to rider Rachael Blackmore have also become. They teamed up to magnificent effect again on Saturday, winning the Grand National at Aintree with Minella Times, who provided the stable with another big-race triumph after the Blackmore-ridden Honeysuckle romped away with the Champion Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival, where the trainer also captured the Champion Chase (Put The Kettle On) and Cheltenham Gold Cup (Minella Indo).
