Tipperary Racecourse is to be used for a National Hunt Fixture on Friday November 22nd.
The course had held it’s final scheduled race meeting for the season last month but due to the recent dry weather a National Hunt fixture was in need of a suitable venue. Entries for the race meeting will close at noon on Monday November 18th and the declarations to be run will be made by 10am on Wednesday. It is expected to be a 7 race card with racing to start before 1pm.
Two meetings were canceled recently in Thurles due to hard ground. Tipperary Racecourse Manager Andrew Hogan says the winter horses are seeking ground that is rated yielding to soft which Tipperary Racecourse can accommodate.
