A woman from Mossley Hill in Liverpool spent £6 on her dress for the Grand National, with her whole outfit adding up to £20.

Racegoers attending the Grand National are known for their glamorous array of outfits, with men and women dressing up to the nines for the special occasion. We saw some outstanding dresses yesterday for Ladies Day, and today for the main Grand National race was no different.

Even one of the Ladies Day Style Awards winners got her outfit from fast fashion retailer ASOS. Ainsley Briscoe, 29, was also overcome by her win, dressed head to
