I've always fancied going.
I'd probably go on the train with my daughter.
Two questions: -
Is there a dress code? My guess is yes in some areas.
Can you pay on the day to get in or is it tickets in advance?

No dress code - pay on the day,although expect traffic to be an absolute nightmare,especially getting away from the course.
I shall be going on the Friday,which is half as busy,but with arguably better racing,and you don't have to queue for half an hour for a bendy pint of Guinness!

Suit in stands, no dress code in Tattersalls or steeplechase enclosure but loads wear suits. Stands and Tatts are both sold out. Steeplechase is not really worth going in imo.

Big bucks will nail it!
I wouldn't be so sure!

If the ground is soft then i fancy Grand Crus but it has to be soft all over not good to soft. If the ground is any quicker then Big Bucks will win but a thing that will help Grand Crus is if there is pace in the race. They went very slow in the World Hurdle and it didnt help Grand Crus and thats why Ruby rode Big Bucks closer to the pace than normal. The only pace in the race is Knockara Beau so it wont be a frantic gallop but i expect them to be going faster than they did at Cheltenham.

Me neither.
Ruby rode a blinder last time,but I can see Aintree suiting Grands Crus better,and the tables could be turned.
