Ballabriggs won the 164th running of the Grand National to secure a new chapter in the McCain family's love affair with the famous Aintree marathon.
Trainer Donald McCain is the son of Ginger, whose four victories in the race included a unique treble with Red Rum.
The 14-1 chance Ballabriggs, owned by Trevor Hemmings and ridden by Jason Maguire, led for much of the way and held off runner-up Oscar Time under amateur jockey Sam Waley-Cohen by two-and-a-quarter lengths.
Last year's winner Don't Push It was third for Tony McCoy with State of Play fourth, ahead of Niche Market
