Ladies Day at Wexford Racecourse

By Dan Walsh

Racing returns to Wexford Racecourse for two-days this weekend with Ladies Day taking place on Friday evening and an afternoon fixture planned for Saturday.

The weather is forecast as dry, breezy with temperatures in the low 20s for both days.

Six hurdle races and an INH Flat Race makes up the seven-race card for Friday evening. The first race is off at 4.45pm.

As stated, Friday is Ladies Day and promises a brilliant evening of racing, style and fun!

Local entrepreneur Fiona Gainfort will be master of ceremonies for the Ladies Day activities and this year’s worthy cause is Wexford Rape Crisis Centre.

Seafield Hotel and Spa Resort at Ballymoney, Gorey, is the main sponsor while Westgate Design and Julie Caulfield, Wexford, is also sponsoring.

I’m told that the “Best Dressed and Best Hat competitions are going to be amazing, we can’t wait to see all the style on show. Fantastic prizes for our winners and lovely goodie bags for our finalists too!”

Racing returns on day-two, Saturday with two hurdle races, four steeplechases and an INH Flat Race – a seven-race card and the action get underway at 2.15pm.
