:00:26. > :00:39.Back home after winning the world's greatest steeplechase. One for

:00:40. > :00:44.Arthur has very quickly established a very strong fan base. It is

:00:45. > :00:49.amazing. A local winner. We wouldn't have expected but it is fantastic

:00:50. > :00:53.for Kinross and putting Kinross on the map. Didn't they do well? The

:00:54. > :00:56.team have done an absolutely fantastic job. It has been a really

:00:57. > :01:01.exciting couple of days so I am really happy for everybody involved

:01:02. > :01:05.and good for him. Good for author. The race itself went remarkably to

:01:06. > :01:15.plan, with author taking up the running. Some say he wasn't meant to

:01:16. > :01:19.win but he is not the quickest in the world but he certainly can jump.

:01:20. > :01:22.He kept his speed until the end. We have tremendous staff and I am

:01:23. > :01:27.hoping they will all be here today and it is their input that has done

:01:41. > :01:46.himself a champion jockey who never won the big race, is well aware of

:01:47. > :01:49.what the victory means for such a small yard. We think sometimes we

:01:50. > :01:54.are in our own little bubble but the village has turned out to see them.

:01:55. > :01:57.Our lads are buying their food in the village and drinking their food

:01:58. > :02:03.and rented houses and they are part of village. This area is not known

:02:04. > :02:07.for its famous sporting achievements, but now it is a Grand

:02:08. > :02:09.National winner. This was created yesterday at Aintree when One for

:02:10. > :02:14.Arthur became the only second Scottish resource to win the world's

:02:15. > :02:15.greatest steeplechase. The plan now is to return in 12 months' time and

:02:16. > :02:21.do it all over again. A seven-year-old boy who died

:02:42. > :02:59.concentration of Scots involved Battle of Arras was the forgotten

:03:00. > :03:02.Battle of the First World War. The lives of 18,000 Scots were last

:03:03. > :03:06.year, 100 years ago. They were remembered today along with the

:03:07. > :03:12.thousands of others from around the world who died. Services began in

:03:25. > :03:30.great-granddaughter of Private James Cook who died in the Battle of

:03:31. > :03:35.Arras. I think if my dad had been huge would have liked it. I have

:03:36. > :03:39.been there and I have seen where my great grandfather would have fought.

:03:40. > :03:41.I have seen pictures of what the trenches were like and it must have

:03:42. > :03:48.been absolutely horrendous for him. The cost was high. The battle for

:03:49. > :03:52.the largest concentration of Scots involved in any World War I

:03:53. > :03:59.campaign. Of the 120 battalions that took part, 44 of them were Scottish.

:04:00. > :04:03.This afternoon, members of the Royal family were joined by Canadian and

:04:08. > :04:11.Minister Nicola Sturgeon, who will also attend a service with The Royal

:04:12. > :04:16.Regiment of Scotland tonight. There is nobody who fought in the First

:04:17. > :04:20.World War left alive. Those soldiers were just like you and me. They

:04:21. > :04:25.worked in shops, factories, and offices. They had families. They had

:04:26. > :04:30.dreams. For many of them, it all ended here.

:04:31. > :04:33.Alex Salmond has predicted Theresa May's position on a second

:04:34. > :04:36.Scottish independence referendum will "crumble" over

:04:37. > :04:40.It follows comments from the Prime Minister that

:04:41. > :04:44.Speaking on the Andrew Marr Show, the former First Minister

:04:45. > :04:46.was unwilling to be drawn on whether an advisory

:04:47. > :04:50.The Scottish Conservatives said it's not the time for more division

:04:51. > :04:59.and uncertainty over Scotland's future.

:05:00. > :05:03.Even Margaret Thatcher, for goodness sake, was prepared to acknowledge

:05:04. > :05:08.that the right of the Scottish people to exercise self

:05:09. > :05:11.determination and remember self-determination delayed, like

:05:12. > :05:14.justice, is self-determination denied and it just won't stand

:05:15. > :05:17.politically so my prediction is that Theresa May will crumble over time.

:05:18. > :05:21.In football in the Premiership third-placed Rangers won 3-0

:05:22. > :05:24.at second placed Aberdeen to cut the gap between them to nine points.
