The Grand National is back for another year on Saturday as race goers flock to Aintree for the first time in two years.
Like many other big sporting events, the world famous horse race was cancelled in 2020 after the country was plunged into the first national lockdown and subject to stringent restrictions. Even when it came back last year, the Grand National was a very much scaled down affair, with no punters allowed at Aintree as a cap was put on attendance.
However, with all Covid related restrictions now gone, a huge crowd is expected to descend on the Liverpool course on Saturday, April 9 when the Randox 2022 Grand National takes place. There has already been a buoyant atmosphere at Aintree, with race goers dressing to impress for Ladies Day on Friday.
