Thurles Race Meeting Doubtful On Thursday

Thurles Race Course

The prospects for horse racing at Thurles on Thursday next were described as ” extremely doubtful ” by racecourse manager Mr Pierce Molony this afternoon.

With Sunday’s meeting at Naas now cancelled due to snow, Thurles is the next scheduled meeting in Ireland.

However, Mr Molony stated:

“We are unraceable presently due to frost. It got as low as -11C here in Thurles last night and we are -4C this afternoon. The very cold weather is due to continue through the week and I would have to say the Thursday’s meeting is very doubtful, unless the weather changes dramatically.”
