Rachael Blackmore, who retired from a glittering career in the saddle in May, received the Contribution to the Industry Award at the annual Horse Racing Ireland Awards 2025 in Dublin this evening. The most recent three recipients of the prestigious title have been the late owner-breeder HH the Aga Khan, trainer Jessica Harrington and multiple champion owner-breeder JP McManus. “It is hard to think of someone who made such a profound impact on the sport so quickly,” said Suzanne Eade, HRI's Chief Executive Officer, before handing the Tipperary-born former rider Blackmore her trophy. “A total of 33 Grade 1s throughout her stellar career and 18 winners at the Cheltenham Festival, including the pinnacle, the Gold Cup, along with Champion Hurdles and a Champion Chase. Most famous of them all, the Grand National at Aintree. Many of those moments arrived during Covid and helped brighten the mood of the nation. They also caught the imagination as Rachael remains a role model, a true trailblazer.” The Horse of the Year Award resulted in a tie between reigning champion Galopin Des Champs and Ethical Diamond who won the Breeders' Cup Turf as an outsider in California last month. Both horses are stabled with Willie Mullins, capping another extraordinary year for the County Carlow trainer who also triumphed in the National Hunt category. This was the second time that Horse of the Year went to dual winners following the 2015 tie between Faugheen and Don Cossack. On a remarkable night for the Mullins family, Willie's son Patrick, the perennial champion amateur rider, accepted the National Hunt Achievement Award in recognition of his Aintree Grand National victory on Nick Rockett. Ireland's newest champion jockey Dylan Browne McMonagle from Donegal swept the Flat Award, while trainer Joe Murphy, based in Tipperary, was a popular recipient of the Flat Achievement Award in the wake of Cercene's stirring Group 1 Coronation Stakes victory at Royal Ascot. The Emerging Talent Award went the way of 17-year-old Nicola Burns from County Westmeath who has ridden over 30 winners since first breaking onto the scene just over a year ago. Tipperary trainer Sam Curling scooped the Point-to-Point Award in acknowledgement of Wonderwall's success in the St James's Place Festival Hunter Chase at Cheltenham, along with his biggest win tally yet at home. In the Racecourse of the Year Award it was Punchestown that lifted the title after a public vote, votes from each of Ireland's 26 racecourses and a select Horse Racing Ireland committee with a focus on sustainability. Finally, on an occasion when his late brother Michael was honoured, amateur jockey Alan O'Sullivan from County Cork picked up the prestigious Ride of the Year Award for they way he partnered Filey Bay to a memorable victory in the Connacht Hotel (QR) Handicap at Galway. A public vote determined this category.

He’d hoped to be back in Hong Kong a little sooner but Joao Moreira is ready to make an impact when he heads to Happy Valley for the first time in over three years on Wednesday night. Denied a position on Hong Kong’s packed riding roster after hoping to return as Caspar Fownes’ stable jockey earlier this season, Moreira will ride in the Longines International Jockeys’ Championship (IJC) for the first time since 2021. Victorious in the competition in 2012, Moreira admitted he wasn’t sure if he...View the full article -

It wouldn't matter if you had 33 track experts as there is always someone questioning their credibility. You go to meetings to sort through some solutions yet come away with more problems beginning with arguments about which experts should be used, and are they actually experts after all. -

Maybe more thought needs to go into how the Christmas race day functions are sold. What are the customers expectations? And what are the racing club hosts providing? Unless the clients are really into racing there's a bit of effort required to keep everyone punting and entertained. I've often given cheap combination bet options for racing newbies. If they get a $12 return for a $6 bet early in the day they are hooked. -
