Bullseye! Aintree racegoers don VERY quirky hats for final day of the Grand National festival

Aintree racegoers have pulled out all the fashion stops for the final day of the Grand National Festival.

The annual event – which got underway in Liverpool on Thursday- is expected to be attended by over 150,000 people this year.

After the festival got off to a boozy start, revellers were back in their finest for another afternoon at the races today.

Feathers were all the rage with today’s group of guests – with several fashionistas opting for outfits with statement cuffs.

Two glamorous guests posed up a storm ahead of one of the races this afternoon.

While one donned a blush pink mini dress with fitted bodice, the second matched her friend’s feathered cuffs with her gold shimmery co-ord. 

Opting for show-stopping accessory, one daring fashionista arrived at the event in a hat shaped like a dartboard.

Allowing her statement hat to take centre stage, the racegoer coordinated the rest of her outfit to offset the colours of the dartboard – opting for a red blazer and black trousers.

Meanwhile, feathered fascinators were also popular among racegoers today – with several rocking sporting navy and white options attached to satin headbands.

Lapping up the sunshine, one glam guest was pictured in a mint green blazer with feathered sleeves and structured bodice. 

Meanwhile, her pal was a vision in a all-white ensemble – which she paired with a matching leather Chanel clutch bag. 

What’s more, a fourth guest opted for a bow-themed ensemble – donning a white fascinator headband and a tweed necktie.

Actor Dominic West was among the first to arrive at Aintree this morning.

The Crown star, 53, cut a smart figure in a grey tweed double breasted jacket and trousers.

The father-of-five added a touch of colour to his smart ensemble with a light blue shirt and by adding red laces to his brown shoes.

While Aintree may not have the royal touch Ascot does, it certainly holds its own in the fashion stakes when it comes to flashing the flesh.

As well as killer heels, thigh-skimming dresses and plunging necklines, the event is famous for its display of flamboyant headgear.

This year’s Grand National Festival draws to a close today, with the final race taking place at 6.20pm.

Earlier today, a woman was arrested in connection to eco activists from Animal Rising gathering at Aintree Racecourse, who vowed their ‘biggest action yet’ at the Grand National.

The militant animal rights group said up to 300 activists will flood the course in Liverpool and that they intend to prevent the main race at 5:15pm from starting.

Police said the 33-year-old, from London, was detained in Greater Manchester on suspicion of conspiracy to cause public nuisance in connection with potential co-ordinated disruption activities at Aintree.

Last night Animal Rising said ‘It’s time to rise up and demand animal justice, for all life’ and said they will be ‘taking direct action to protect the horses’. They also plan to block traffic by performing a slow march.

A spokesperson for the group said the activists will be ‘peacefully attempting’ to climb over fences and walls with the intention of making their way on to the track.
