Limerick Racecourse, |
| |
Ireland’s first new Racecourse for over fifty years, Greenmount Park opened its doors in October 2001 to over 18,000 on its inaugural raceday. The seventh location for Limerick races since 1790, following Bruff, Rathkeale, Newcastle, Lemonfield, Ballinacurra and Green Park, the track is built on a 400-acre site of an old stud farm on the outskirts of Limerick City, and is home to Grade 1 National Hunt and Flat racing all year round.
The Oval Track is right handed, 1 mile and 3 furlongs long on the outside and at 70 metres across at its widest point, can provide fresh ground for most meetings. With 17 days programmed for 2005 including the 4 day Guinness Christmas Festival, Limerick continues to build its race programme in profile and prize money.
