The St Patrick’s day race day at Down Royal racecourse was held behind closed doors, but there was some exciting racing as we all watched from home. Bluegrass Horse Feed was the main sponsor of the day with six races out of the seven races of the day.

Congratulations to all involved in the day and to all winning connections. Bluegrass customers had a great day winning five of the seven races.

A big thank you to the team at Down Royal for keeping it all going during these difficult times. We are all looking forward to racecourses reopening for a big race day out.
