Evening racing comes to Wexford tomorrow (Wednesday) with the first of seven races – six over hurdles and the bumper – kicking off at 5.30pm.
Horse Racing Ireland confirmed to WexfordLocal.com just a few minutes ago that the going will be ‘yielding to soft’. 17mm of rain has fallen on the track since last Thursday, and while it will be mainly dry over the coming days there is the possibility of 4mm (approximately) prior to racing.
But the races go ahead, the main sponsor is Boylesports, yours truly will be in the parade ring with the guys from Sky’s Racing TV channel, broadcasting live in Ireland and the United Kingdom, and maybe further afield, and Wexford Racecourse would love to see families, friends and enthusiasts of horse racing fill the stands at Bettyville Park. First race at 5.30pm, last race at 8.30pm.
