Stay with us on BBC One, it's time for the news where you are.

:00:00.:00:10.

Grand National winner One For Arthur has returned

:00:11.:00:13.

to his stables in Milnathort, after winning what was

:00:14.:00:16.

the first Scottish success in the race since 1979.

:00:17.:00:19.

He was welcomed back by fans, though perhaps not

:00:20.:00:21.

by the bookmakers, as they lost millions on odds

:00:22.:00:23.

of 14-1. Brian Mclauchlin reports.

:00:24.:00:26.

Back home after winning the world's greatest steeplechase.

:00:27.:00:29.

One For Arthur has very quickly established a very strong fan base.

:00:30.:00:34.

We wouldn't have expected it, but it is fantastic

:00:35.:00:38.

for Kinross and putting Kinross on the map.

:00:39.:00:40.

The team have done an absolutely fantastic job.

:00:41.:00:44.

It has been a really exciting couple of days,

:00:45.:00:46.

so I am really happy for everybody involved and good for him.

:00:47.:00:52.

The race itself went remarkably to plan,

:00:53.:00:58.

with Arthur taking up the running near the end.

:00:59.:01:00.

Some say he wasn't meant to win, as he is not the quickest in

:01:01.:01:03.

the world, but he certainly can jump.

:01:04.:01:07.

We have tremendous staff and I am hoping they will all be here today

:01:08.:01:14.

and it is their input that has done it all.

:01:15.:01:18.

We are very lucky to have a horse like him and he is just outstanding.

:01:19.:01:21.

He even does being a Grand National winner well.

:01:22.:01:30.

Trainer Peter Scudamore, himself a champion jockey who never

:01:31.:01:32.

won the big race, is well aware of what the victory means for such

:01:33.:01:35.

We think sometimes we are in our own little bubble,

:01:36.:01:42.

but the village has turned out to see them.

:01:43.:01:45.

Our lads are buying their food in the village and drinking their food

:01:46.:01:48.

in rented houses and they are part of village.

:01:49.:01:50.

This area is not known for its famous

:01:51.:01:52.

sporting achievements, but now it has a Grand National winner.

:01:53.:02:06.

History created yesterday at Aintree when One For Arthur became the only

:02:07.:02:09.

second Scottish-trained racehorse to win the world's

:02:10.:02:10.

The plan now is to return in 12 months' time and do

A seven-year-old boy who died after being struck by a van in Moray

:02:15.:02:21.

The accident happened in Elgin on Friday evening.

:02:22.:02:30.

of the Battle of Arras, in which 18,000 Scots died.

:02:31.:02:33.

The fighting saw the highest concentration of Scots involved

:02:34.:02:34.

in any First World War campaign. John McManus reports.

:02:35.:02:48.

It was one of the most significant battles of the war.

:02:49.:02:54.

The lives of 18,000 Scots were lost here 100 years ago.

:02:55.:02:59.

of others from around the world who died.

:03:00.:03:01.

Services began in France this morning, in a ceremony

:03:02.:03:03.

conducted to remember the Scottish casualties.

:03:04.:03:10.

Respects were also paid in Edinburgh, at the War Memorial. Some

:03:11.:03:24.

of those had also visited the War graves in France. It was very

:03:25.:03:27.

different. The battle saw the largest

:03:28.:03:33.

concentration of Scots involved in any

:03:34.:03:35.

World War I campaign. Today's memorial events mean a great

:03:36.:03:50.

deal to the descendants. And significant for Scotland as a

:03:51.:03:53.

nation, recognising the massive contribution that the soldiers made

:03:54.:03:58.

during World War I. Football now and today's Premiership
