TATTERSALLS IRELAND TO HOST TWO DAY POINT TO POINT AT TATTERSALLS IN MAY 2013

Tattersalls Ireland Managing Director: Roger Casey said:

“Following on from the successful running of the Point to Point featuring the Cross Country race in December we are delighted to announce this exciting new initiative of a two day point to point at Tattersalls on Friday and Saturday 24th and 25th May.

There is an excellent programme of races on offer including the Mares Only Final, which is an exciting climax for all Mare owners and I would like to commend the ITBA for their joint sponsorship of the Bonus prize. There is industry wide support to help create demand for national hunt mares and we are delighted that the majority of our 30 sponsored point to points will be confined to Mares only this year”.

ITBA Chief, Shane O'Dwyer said:

"The ITBA are delighted to be supporting any initiative that will raise the profile of the National Hunt Mare and this bonus will hopefully create an added incentive along with other initiatives, soon to be announced, for National Hunt Mare Owners"
