Roscommon Racecourse stages its penultimate fixture of the year next Monday (September 3rd) with the first race off at 4.35 pm.
The committee would like to thank the EBF, who are kindly sponsoring three races on the evening.
In a statement, the committee said: “The good weather has been a help and a hindrance this summer and while it has been welcomed by tourists and racegoers alike, it was hard work getting enough water on the track to ensure nice ground.
“The fast ground has held a lot of trainers up and there is an army of horses to run, as they have been waiting for kind ground. With that in mind, we’d anticipate that some good horses will run at Roscommon that evening.
“The top yards were well represented here last week and we’d imagine that it will be more of the same here for our next fixture”.
Overall it’s been a great year at Lenabane, as the committee acknowledges.
“We’d like to thank our loyal racegoers who have turned up in their droves here all year. We would also like to thanks our sponsors, many of whom are local to the racecourse.
“Hopefully we’ll have some good weather, as that always makes an evening at the races much more enjoyable”.
There’s a special admission price of €10 for adults and €5 for OAPs/students. Also, attractive discounts on group bookings. Free admission in for children U-16.
The Ros Special for €35 includes admission, a racecard, a two-course meal and a €10 betting voucher. There’s also a free bets competition on the racecard.
