Updates from Aintree; big race goes off at 5.15pm BSTNational braced as ‘300-plus’ protesters plan to disrupt raceGreg Wood’s horse-by-horse guide to the 2023 National
There were more journalists than activists outside Aintree at 9.30am, when the group Animal Rising launched their protest action with the ultimate aim of stopping this afternoon’s Grand National going ahead.
The initial count of around 30 has risen over the last couple of hours to about 60, but that includes the annual demonstration by members of a different group, Animal Aid, and is still a long way short of the 200 to 300 that Animal Rising had said it was hoping to attract.
