No races are scheduled for this date.
At Aintree on 7 November 2026 the ground rode Good to Soft (good in places) and produced several notable performances. Javert Allen (Jane Williams/Ciaran Gethings) edged out Paul Nicholls’ Sans Bruit in the 13:15 William Hill Best Odds Guaranteed Handicap Chase, while Alexei (Joe Tizzard/Harry Cobden) justified short-priced favouritism in the Grade 2 Molyneux Hurdle. Taurus Bay took the Boodles Rising Stars Novices’ Chase for Ben Pauling, Idem delivered a surprise in the Pertemps qualifier at 16/1 for Lucinda Russell & Michael Scudamore, Josh The Boss landed the Play Lucky Stable With William Hill Handicap Chase and Al Capony won the ‘Junior’ National Hunt Flat race comfortably for Dan Skelton.
Key performances
Javert Allen showed grit to take the opener, getting the better of Sans Bruit by a neck after being ridden to lead inside the final 110 yards. Alexei, heavily backed, travelled strongly and asserted from the last to score readily, while Taurus Bay ran on well after taking the lead post-2 out to land the staying novice chase. The Pertemps qualifier produced the day’s biggest price surprise when Idem came from the rear to lead late and hold on. Josh The Boss headed for home from the 8th and proved resolute through the finish in the later chase, and Al Capony produced a smooth late move to win the National Hunt Flat event by a clear margin.
There were a number of non-runners and withdrawals on the day (Mydaddypaddy, Chanceawetmorning, Off The Jury and Kings Jet were withdrawn or declared non-runners) and several runners pulled up in the larger chases (Petit Tonnerre, Sir Tivo, Boombawn and Hercule Du Seuil) after failing to travel or jump fluently.

Summary: the card at Aintree combined a couple of short-priced results with a standout big-price success (Idem at 16/1) and a handful of late withdrawals and pull-ups. The going report and the way several horses failed to settle suggest connections will be keeping a close eye on ground and fitness in the coming fixtures.

Aintree Race Results

Racecourse Guide
Home to the Grand National, Aintree is one of the top National Hunt venues in the circuit. Despite various modifications to the National Course, the race still offers the ultimate challenge to both horse and rider and attracts a massive worldwide audience. Fences the like of Becher’s Brook, The Chair and The Canal Turn have helped to capture the public’s imagination of the race and have become household names in their own right. The Mildmay and hurdles courses stage all but five of Aintree’s races, and the Mildmay Course is a flat track with two long straights. It is imperative horses are fast and accurate at their obstacles at both courses.
Dining, Hospitality & Facilities
For a finer, premium experience there are plenty of hospitality options available. There is a choice of restaurant packages, each offering a base for the day with views of the course or the Winners’ Enclosure; see the racecourse website for current packages and what they include.
If you’re part of a bigger group and are looking for a bit more privacy the racecourse also offers private boxes for hire. There are two different options to choose from (Premier and VIP), with prices starting from £162 per person. Each box includes a minimum three course meal, tea and coffee plus a private balcony overlooking the racecourse.

The Effect of the Draw
With Aintree being a National Hunt racecourse, there are no stalls so there is no draw bias. However, it’s worth noting that although Aintree is a flat course, it can be testing so you need a horse that can travel.
