Thumbs up for Tramore

THE brand new racetrack at Tramore has been given the thumbs up by Irish Examiner columnist Ruby Walsh, as well as fellow jockeys Paul Townend and Andrew Lynch and champion trainer Willie Mullins.

Mullins is a director at Tramore, after he and his father, Paddy, bought a share many years ago, but he insisted yesterday that the new track would be a “Grade 1 flat track” and that the possibilities would be endless if funding could be secured to complete the development.

At present, there are separate flat, hurdle and chase tracks on the 183 acre site but no buildings have been constructed yet even though planning permission is in place for a grandstand with a capacity of 5,000 people, as well as four bars, five corporate boxes, and restaurant, as well as the other necessary amenities for racing.
