Other details:
The first new course to be built in Ireland for half a century, Limerick is a Grade One track for both NH and flat racing. The track has a deceptively steep pull up the three furlongs of the back straight. Also a mile long Eurotrack all weather schooling gallop on the inside of the main track (open 6 days a week). Substantial non-racing conference, banqueting and exhibition facilities also available
