Article changing entire English racecourse (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

aintree

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'english racecourse' is the definition.
'Aintree' can be an answer for 'racecourse' (horseracing venue in Liverpool). I am unsure of the 'english' bit.

'article changing entire' is the wordplay.
'article' becomes 'a' (the indefinite article in English).
'changing' indicates an anagram.
'entire' is an anagram of 'intree'.
'a'+'intree'='AINTREE'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for aintree that I've seen before include "6 National course" , "Grand National course" , "Liverpool race course" , "Home of the Grand National" , "Merseyside racecourse" .)
