Security is set to be stepped up at the Grand National after 100 eco activists and 'militant vegans' planned to sabotage the event.
The animal rights campaigners intended to use ladders and bolt cutters to storm security fences before the race at Aintree on April 15. They were then planning to glue themselves together as a human barricade and sit across the course.
The conspiracy was revealed by an undercover reporter secretly filming the Animal Rebellion campaign group, reports the Mail on Sunday.
