Fences Derby - Voluptuary, bred on behalf of Queen Victoria, may be the only horse to have run within the Epsom Derby and gone to win the Grand National. Voluptuary was trained by the brothers William and Ted Wilson at Illmington, Warwickshire. He ran inside the Derby in 1881, briefly holding the leading position while he rounded Tattenham Corner, but finished sixth to Iroquois. The six yr old then won at Aintree, on jockey Ted Wilson (one of the trainers), by four lengths at his debut (in public places) over fences in 1884.
Voluptuary ran another 3 times within the Grand National, but much to everyone's; especially trainer William Wilson's; disappointment, he failed to complete the course anymore! When his racing career was over, he got a billing inside a London theatre production, regularly appearing around the Drury Lane stage where he previously to clear a mock Water jump night after night inside the play 'Prodigal Daughter', ridden by actor Leonard Boyne who subsequently bought him.
Other Derby runners who went on to race in the National were A British Yeoman, of John Elmore and Ryshworth belonging to Henry Chaplin. A British Yeoman was placed third and sixth within the Nationals of 1848 and 1849 after being unplaced at Epsom in 1843. He didn't finish within the National of 1850, and the man was brought down in the final attempt, at the ages of 16, in 1856. Ryshworth was obviously a runner up in the 1873 National after coming fourth inside the 1869 Derby.
Fences Derby - Donzelon ran, but didn't impress in the Derby of 1924, but went on to win the Scottish Grand National in 1929. However, his single work for balance Aintree in 1930, where he would be a 66-1 outsider, triggered an autumn. Brienz won the 1928 Dewhurst Stakes and finished third within the 1929 Derby. He was good around the fences, winning the Coventry Cup Chase on the 1933 Cheltenham Festival, as well as came fourth in the Gold Cup in 1936. His entries into the Grand National didn't supply the same type of results, because he fell in both 1935 and 1936 races.
Permit was another to run in the Derby and also the National. He never showed much promise on the Flat but was capable if this found the Fences, and that he finished third in the Haydock National Trial of 1969 and also the Greenall Whitley National Trial of 1971. His attempts at winning the nation's didn't arrived at fruition - he was brought down in the accumulate inside the first open ditch in 1970 plus 1972 fell like a 100-1 outsider.
