When we're not home to the most famous race in the world in April, the John Smith's Grand National, Aintree Racecourse plays hosts to an additional 6 racedays, making every raceday at Aintree a special one.

Racing at Aintree doesn’t happen every day, so when it does, it’s always a special occasion. Home of the John Smith’s Grand National, Aintree is one of the world’s most famous racecourses. With over two miles of luscious green racetrack, and horse racing’s biggest stars taking to this jumps only course, racing here is always a sight to behold at one of Aintree’s six other racedays outside of the Grand National meeting.
