OTHER INFORMATION
Accessible Seating There is an allocation of seats in the grandstands (subject to availability), where there are lifts for Owners requiring these facilities. Please ensure you have arranged disabled seats with Carly Sage on 0151 522 2959 or Aintree.Owners@thejockeyclub.co.uk well in advance of the day. Owners and Trainers’ Liaison After each race, a racecourse liaison person will be located in the pull-up area for any Owner, Trainer or Stable Staff wishing to enquire about the whereabouts of their horse. Accommodation A list of hotels located near Aintree can be found at www.visitliverpool.com and we recommend booking in advance. Viewing The Racing There is a dedicated Owners and Trainers’ viewing area on the Lord Sefton Stand terrace steppings and the Lord Daresbury Stand roof.
We would be grateful for your co-operation in ensuring that the centre of the Racecourse remains clear of all racegoers. This is an integral part of the event security and we need to ensure that there are no personnel in this area. We therefore ask that all those associated with horses return to the stand side of the course, prior to each race. This is particularly important for Owners, Trainers and Stable Staff with horses in races over the National fences. Branding Further to the British Horseracing Authority’s (BHA) decision to allow the sponsors to have the option of exclusive access to all the Owners and Jockeys’ branding sites and attendants’ clothing for races at the Grand National Festival, the sponsors, Aintree Racecourse, the Racehorse Owners’ Association and the Professional Jockeys’ Association have reached agreement for this option to apply in all races. The sponsors have exercised the exclusivity option in all 21 (twenty-one)
races scheduled to take place during The 2025 Randox Grand National Festival. For all races during The 2025 Randox Grand National Festival the sponsors will display their logo on Owners’ silks, Jockeys’ branding sites, paddock cloths and attendants’ clothing. All logos will be supplied by the sponsors. In addition, for The Randox Grand National, the sponsor will provide a branded paddock sheet/rug. The sponsors will pay the Owners of horses, who display the sponsors’ logo on Owners’ silks and paddock sheet/rug, taking part in The Randox Grand National £1,250, plus VAT, each. In the other 20 (twenty) races, a sponsorship payment of £210, plus VAT, will be made to each Owner who displays the sponsor’s logo. It is possible that in one race the sponsors will allow logos promoting a charity to be worn instead of their own. If this is the case, the sponsorship payments will still be made to the Owners. Subject to the Rules of Racing, the sponsors will make a payment to the equivalent of one riding fee (£227.92) per ride per ride to each Jockey who displays the sponsor’s logo.
