Boxer Natasha Jonas has been announced as the Aintree ambassador for the 2023 Randox Grand National.
The announcement follows Jonas' points victory over the previously unbeaten Patricia Berghult in a title-unifying bout at the M&S Bank Arena, where she added the WBC super-welterweight belt to the WBO title she already held. She will join jockeys Rachael Blackmore and Ruby Walsh as ambassadors of the three-day racing event.
During the summer holidays, Aintree hosted the Trevor Hemmings Learn to Ride Summer School, organised by Toxteth-based Park Palace Ponies and The Jockey Club. Jonas took some time out of her fight preparation to join Grand National-winning jockey, Rachael Blackmore and Liverpool FC stars Leighanne Robe and Niamh Fahey for a sporting masterclass at the racecourse.
