There's a good article in the Echo, by Dawn Collinson, having a go at the photographers who just try to make the racegoers look bad. She suggests a solution......

"So, with an unrepentant offender, what’s to be done to stop it getting worse and worse? If becomes acceptable to publish photos of a girl accidentally flashing her underwear, where is the line?
I think the answer has to lie with Aintree itself. Every one of those photographers and writers are given accreditation by the course. They are on private property and it’s Aintree’s prerogative to say who can and can’t come in and work. So why not come down heavy on those who abuse their racegoers?
The women who find themselves in the so-called galleries of shame can’t defend themselves. By the time it’s happened it’s too late for that, but Aintree could and should.
Aintree racecourse is a business like any other business and those racegoers are its customers, who have a right to expect protection. If photographers waited in the beauty hall of John Lewis, snapped women without their make-up on and then humiliated them publically, I’m certain John Lewis would kick them out and make sure they never did it again.
Aintree, it’s time to get tough."
