Following the running of the 6th race, we were aware of an incident regarding a member of the general public. We identified the man, took his details & removed him from the course.
We are all devastated to hear of the death of Lorna Brooke. She was so proud to win the 1st ever ladies chase run in Ireland or England in 2015. She rode 25/1 shot Moonlone Lane for Paul Stafford & was just so happy to get a ride in the race but her smile says it all on winning
Condolences to family and friends of Peter Casey who sadly passed away overnight. A brilliant character, Peter trained Flemenstar to win the Grade 1 Gold Cup at Fairyhouse in 2012. He will be sadly missed. RIP
Happy to report that
