Campaign group Animal Rising has confirmed its planned protest to disrupt the Grand National at Aintree on Saturday.
The showpiece horse race is due to get underway at 5.15pm on Saturday. However, animal rights campaigners plan to be at the racecourse earlier that day ahead of a busy programme of races.
Animal Rising has reiterated plans of a peaceful protest on the day, followed by efforts to disrupt the feature race itself in the afternoon. A message has also been sent to those planning to place bets on the Grand National.
