For Aintree, whistle n flute. 100% I don't think you'd be over dressed in one, I'd fear you might be underdressed if you didn't.

The BHA have launched a campaign called ‘The Horse Comes First’. Here are the key messages and statistics. Click Here
Access Requirements
Bookings can be taken now. When making your booking, please inform our sales advisors of any access requirements you have so that we can advise you on the best enclosure choice, or view our access requirements page.
Accommodation
No visit to the Crabbie’s Grand National is complete without a stay in this vibrant region. The Tourist Board for the Liverpool City Region offer a free accommodation search and booking service to assist you in planning your stay. Go to visitliverpool.com or call 0844 8700 123 UK, +44 [0]151 709 8111 from overseas.
Car parking
There is limited car parking for a fee at the racecourse. The easiest way of reaching Aintree is by rail, with Aintree Station directly opposite the racecourse. Limited on-course parking is available for the Grand National meeting. To purchase call 0344 579 3001.
Buses, taxis, private hire and trains all operate to Aintree and special arrangements have been made for them. Please see the sections relating to train, taxi and bus travel for more information on these services.
Course walking
Don’t miss the opportunity to walk the famous course during your visit [subject to ground conditions]. See some of the famous fences and really appreciate the challenge that is the Grand National course. Give yourself plenty of time and everyone needs to be off the racecourse 1 hour prior to the 1st race. N.B. Full walk not available to Steeplechase ticket holders.
Location
Aintree Racecourse is located on the A59, just one mile from the M57 and M58, which link the M62 and M6.
Picnics
Food and drink cannot be brought onto the racecourse and will be confiscated by security staff upon arrival. Aintree has a wide range of food and drink concessions on offer in all enclosures. Picnics can only be consumed in the parking areas.
Opening times
Open from 10am on each day of the meeting, get to Aintree early to make the most of your day and also to allow for racecourse security procedures.
Race times
Race times for The Crabbie’s Grand National Festival 2016 to be confirmed.
The going
Please visit TurfTrax to view the latest Going Reports at Aintree.
Dress code
Although there is no official dress code, smart is preferable and is often adopted. Aintree is a spectacle of colour for all three days of the festival, with many using their trip as an opportunity to showcase their favourite raceday outfits. Hats are optional too, but are frequently worn. Sports clothes and fancy dresses are not permitted for the Grand National meeting.

"Definitely a suit for Aintree. I know people that go the full hog every year with top hat and tails. You won't be overdressed in a suit that's for sure. "
i know what u mean but I'm there for 3 days racing! I don't think I want to wear a suit everyday and I'm not bringing a suitcase just a carry on bag
