Aintree Racecourse rose as one to applaud the Hillsborough victims on the 34th anniversary of the disaster.
The tens of thousands of racegoers at this year's Grand National remembered those who died as a result of the tragedy with a minute's applause at 3.20pm. The Grand National Day falls on Saturday, April 15 - exactly 34 years on from the disaster.
The huge Aintree crowd, who had flocked from around the country for the iconic race meet, collectively came together to remember the 97 Liverpool fans who died during the FA Cup semi-final in 1989. Sir Kenny Dalglish, who was manager of Liverpool FC at the time of the Hillsborough disaster, said: "My thoughts are always with everyone affected by what happened at Hillsborough, and the anniversary each year is always a poignant day for the city of Liverpool.
