University Student riders' race to be held at Curragh A new race is to be held at the Curragh Racecourse which will highlight some of the great talent that exists among third level student riders in horse racing across Europe. The Horseware Ireland Student Derby is a new exhibition race which will take place as the final race of the Curragh flat season...

We are delighted to announce that we have one of our very own members representing us in the Horseware Ireland Student Derby which will be taking place at The Curragh Racecourse on the 26th of October.

The race is the first of its kind, thanks to the European Student Horse Racing Federation. The race will include riders from many Universities in Ireland and further a field such as Oxford, Nottingham and Cardiff Universities to name a few.

Have a look at the link below to find out a bit more about the race!

We are hoping to organise a trip to this race day so give us a message or email if your interested in going!

** TRIP NOTICE **

We’re delighted to announce details of our upcoming trip on Thursday 20 February to trainer Enda Bolger’s unique cross country training centre in Bruree, County Limerick, followed by an afternoon of jump racing at Thurles Racecourse.

Enda has been very kind to allow us in to see his hugely impressive stables, home to the likes of hunter chasing legend On The Fringe, high-class chaser Ballyoisin and Yanworth, one of the leading contenders to dethrone Tiger Roll next month at the Cheltenham Festival.

Depending on numbers, the trip will cost only €10 or €12, which includes transport costs from UL to Bruree to Thurles and back to UL, as well as a ticket for Thurles Racecourse on the day. We’ll be leaving UL at 9.30am and should be back at 6.00pm.

We’ve made the trip as affordable as possible and would love to have a strong turnout - ALL are welcome, with the trip open to new and existing members.

To secure your place, or if you have any further questions, please message our page or email Billy on [email protected].
