Big races
The day one feature at Aintree is the Betway Bowl (2.50), a Grade 1 over 3m1f and featuring plenty of familiar names. The race has an illustrious honour roll, including two-time winners Wayward Lad, Docklands Express, First Gold and Silviniaco Conti.
Also on the card is the Aintree Hurdle (3.25) featuring several top-class performers including 2017 winner Buveur D Air, while Britain s best juvenile hurdlers clash at 2.20 and novice chasers do battle in the opening Manifesto Novices Chase (1.45).
The first of three races over the National fences at the meeting comes at 4.05 when 23 runners contest the Rose Paterson Randox Foxhunters Open Hunters Chase, while some exciting prospects will be in action in the concluding Grade 2 Mares Bumper (5.15).
