Posting on Twitter, Animal Rising said: "25 supporters of Animal Rising have made it onto the track at the Scottish Grand National, to put their bodies in the way of harm, and protect animals.
"They're attempting to attach themselves to jumps and gates in order to cancel the big race."
Their posted added that "last week at Aintree was just the beginning. The Summer of Animal Rising is upon us."
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: "Officers are responding to a protest which is ongoing at Ayr Racecourse this afternoon.
"A significant operation is underway to safely remove those involved. A number of arrests have been made and an increased police presence remains at the scene."
