Trainers are requested to note that an EXTRA race will be held at this meeting:- a 45-65 4+ hcap over 2 miles (Race 82H) which closes for entries by 12 noon tomorrow (Fri 16 April).
Trainers are advised to note that HRI Directive 10 (Balloting Rules) is suspended for the purpose of this meeting (with the exception of Race 79H). Races 79A-G at this meeting are confined to horses that have run AT LEAST ONCE AT DUNDALK between 9 November 2020 and 19 March 2021 and the balloting system in operation will be based on the number of points a horse has obtained during their performances in this period.

HRI and Equuip, in association with Weatherbys, will be hosting online demonstration sessions to assist with any issues that trainers and secretaries may be experiencing when using the Weatherbys vaccination app. If you are interested in attending a session, please email [email protected]
IHRB have announced that Trainers now have the option to declare non-runners and reserves directly on the RÁS system. While they can continue to use the non-runner line (045-445645) to declare non-runners and reserves, this facility is now also available at any time on RÁS. Trainers are reminded the deadline for declaring reserves to run is by 11am while the deadline for non-runners is by 90 minutes before the time of the first race. However, to allow reserves the chance to run, non-runners must be declared by 11am.
Trainers please see details of upcoming Business Growth Programmes for the Equine sector run by Local Enterprise Offices.

Irish trained horses are permitted to participate again in all British races other than Class 5 and 6 handicaps/classified stakes on the Flat, and Class 5 handicaps over Jumps. Any such runners would remain subject to the relevant British Government regulations in place at the time. The new restrictions are intended to balance the importance of GB-trained horses being given an opportunity to run, especially in low-grade handicaps, with the requirement to improve the quality of racing and see the best possible horses compete, and encourage international competition. This approach will remain under constant review with the possibility of a return to tighter restrictions in the future if circumstances change, including all changes to relevant Government regulations.
The Health Screening Check-In Area will open 3 hours before the first race and close 30 minutes before the last race. Attendees who arrive after this time will not be permitted to enter the racecourse. The only exception will be for the first race meeting behind closed doors at a racecourse whereby the Health Screening Check-In Area will open 4 hours before the first and close 30 minutes before the last. Attendees who arrive after this time will not be permitted to enter the racecourse.
All permitted attendees to race meetings will be required to complete a pre-return online questionnaire by no later than 6pm two days before their first race meeting and by no later than 6pm the day before each race meeting they are due to attend after that. On completion of the health screening questionnaire a barcode specific to you will be generated (this will be a different barcode for each day). You must bring this barcode to the race meeting for scanning on the day - it can be on your phone or printed out. Please log on to http://wwww.ihrb.ie/health-screening for further details where you will also find raceday information specific to each racecourse. Please remember you will need your AIR Card (if applicable) or name on a pre-determined list AND your Health Screening Barcode to gain entry to each race meeting.There will be no exceptions.
