Sorry for mentioning the C word a litle too early. However our last race meeting of 2009 takes place on Sunday 6th December so we are getting into the Festive mood earlier than others. Come racing on Dec 6th and get your €5 food or drink voucher on admittance. Enter our fee racecard draw for a 2010 Annual Membership Badge. Enjoy the Live Music in our Club Stand Bar form 3pm to 5pm. Forget the shops and all the rushing around. Have a really relaxing day with family and friends at Clonmel races. Its all refurbished and lookin good. See you Dec 6th. All kicks off at 12.45pm.

Teachers Treat – No Trick

Here at Clonmel Races we kinda feel sorry for school teachers. They don’t have it easy in fairness. So this Halloween we are going to let them into our racemeeting (Thurs 29th Oct) for half price (thats €7.50 instead of the usual €15). And they can bring a friend, partner, family member along for the company and they too will get in for half price. All we need to see at the turnstile is some form of teacher ID. Loads of complimentary nibbles too in our ’spooky’ Club Stand Bar. What else would you be doing on a Thursday. See you there. First race 1.15pm

Sunday racing at Clonmel

With the sun continuing to shine what better way to spend this Sunday than by taking a trip to the races at Clonmel. The first of 7 races gets underway at 2.25 All hurdles or chases which everyone seems to enjoy at Clonmel. Its probably because you can get so close to the action. We have a group of visitors coming from the USA and we wonder what they will think of our racecourse. To be honest though it does look lovely at this time of the year. Sunday will also see the re-opening of our on-course betting shop. Ladbrokes are the new tenants and no doubt there will be many pleased to see this facility available once again. And don’t forget that we have loads of dining options at the racecourse whether you want a Carvery Lunch, Sausages and Chips, Soup and Sandwiches or just simply a Coffee with a cream bun. See you on Sunday !!!

The good news is that the race meeting which was supposed to take place today Thursday has been rescheduled for next Monday 7th September. The first of 7 races will get underway at 4.25. No doubt loads of people will have Monday off work to recover from the All Ireland final on Sunday so what a great way to finish off what we hope will be a mighty weekend. Anyone wearing a Tipperary jersey will gain admission for €10 and of course all Senior Citizens will be admitted for the special price of €5. Music in Club Stand Bar also.
