Hats, high heels and glamorous dresses are the order of the day as lads and lasses head to the bar and place bets
BOOZE flowed throughout Ladies Day at Aintree as revellers got stuck in to the betting and bars – but for many it proved too much as they napped in the sun.
The day started off with women dressing to impress and the men following suit on day two of the Grand National Festival, however by the last race the day had taken its toll on some.

“Race-goers can help us by giving themselves extra time to get to the racecourse, arriving in good time and limiting the number of bags and other items they bring into the course.
“Co-operating with the security staff will ensure the queues are kept to a minimum and people can be in their places in plenty of time for the first race.”
