Irish Thoroughbred Marketing, with the backing of the Irish European Breeders’ Fund and the Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board, is resuming Barrier Trials for unraced 2yo and 3yo horses at Dundalk Stadium on July 29.
The Barrier Trials are being staged to meet the strong demand from overseas for quality unraced thoroughbreds and will return on the brand-new polytrack surface at Dundalk, where they were first staged in 2018.
Entries can be made here from July 15 and will close at 5pm on July 24. Terms and conditions can be found here.
The Irish EBF Barrier Trials will operate under the same Covid-19 protocols in operation on regular race days at present.
ITM is very grateful to everyone who has supported the concept to date and is especially thankful to have gained the backing of the Irish EBF, the largest sponsor of racing in Ireland.
John O’Connor, Chairman of the Irish EBF, said: “Now, more than ever, the Barrier Trials will provide a valuable opportunity for the Irish bloodstock industry to showcase a proven quality product to a wider market and we are pleased to play our part by supporting them at Dundalk in July and hopefully again in August.”
Another date for the Irish EBF Barrier Trials is scheduled for August 24, pending approval from those with whom ITM cooperates.
