All eyes are on Aintree racecourse today as the greatest steeplechase in the world - The Grand National - takes place

Bookmark

Tens of thousands of people have attended Aintree Racecourse today for the final day of the Grand National Festival.

As always, racegoers wore some incredible outfits and many couples dressed up together for the occasion. Looking stunning from head to toe , some couples wore matching colours while others simply stood out in style separately.

ECHO reporters have been on the course for all three days of the festival, and have managed to spot amazing outfits, we’ve rounded up a selection of the best dressed couples we spotted on the day below. For many, the fashion is the main attraction, with men and women often spending months planning their outfits in advance and hours getting ready.

For others, the day is all about the horse racing and this year there have been some changes. Horses will run the The Grand National at the earlier time of 4pm.

The four miles, two-and-a-half furlong steeplechase is known as the People's Race, with millions of national and international fans tuning in to witness the event. Last year’s winner, Corach Rambler, topped the betting market with odds around 13/2.

However with the Grand National, there's no telling who will win, with Noble Yeats, winning it in 2022 at staggering odds of 50/1. The longest odds for a winning horse at the Grand National is 100/1 and was achieved by Tipperary Tim (1928), Gregalach (1929), Caughoo (1947), Foinavon (1967) and Mon Mome (2009).

Below we've rounded up some photographs of couples attending the Grand National Festival 2024.
