READ MORE Despite the glitz and glamour, it was those without tickets that stole the Grand National show Traffic was also blocked by protesters on the M57 motorway at around the same time as activists attempted to get on to the racecourse. There were delays of more than an hour on the road, which runs from the M62 to Aintree.
“This is just the start of many peaceful actions to really create a national conversation about our fractured connection with animals and our natural world this summer, whether they result in arrests or not.”
