Photos as first arrivals dazzle at Aintree for Grand National 2023

These stunning photos show the first stylish arrivals of the Grand National.

Gates opened at 10am and thousands of people have already made their way onto the racecourse. After yesterday's rainy weather, the sun is back out and people are soaking up the atmosphere.

Between 65,000 and 70,000 people are expected to attend Aintree Racecourse today. For many, the fashion is the main attraction, with stylish men and women often spending months planning their outfits in advance.

People have gone all out to with their outfits for the final day of the festival. ECHO reporters have been on the course for all three days of the festival, and have managed to spot some incredible outfits just within the first few hours.

39 runners and riders are ready to try and win the most valuable jump race in Europe. Noble Yeats has the chance to win for a second time this year, with last year's 50/1 outsider winner returning to compete.

The biggest challenge is expected to come in the form of current favourite Corach Rambler. However, after finishing second in last year's race, Any Second Now could also be in with a shout along with other big names Delta Work, Gailard Du Mesnil and Mr Incredible.

You can also check out some of the amazing looking racegoers we've spotted at Aintree already this morning in our gallery.
