Racing returns at Sligo - without spectators

Racing returns to Sligo today (Thurs, July 2nd) behind closed doors - its first meeting of 2020 under the revised racing calendar.

The Cleveragh venue will host a seven-race flat card, starting at 4:10pm.

It will be the first of six race meetings at Sligo this year. The course originally had nine dates on the Horse Racing Ireland calender, but the revised Covid schedule means three of those meetings have now been cancelled.

No punters/spectators will be allowed into the course today - as a strict series of Covid regulations are in place for the meeting.

The seven races will be televised on Racing TV.

County Sligo Racecourse manager Kathryn Foley explained to Ocean FM Sport's Austin O'Callaghan how the new regulations will work:
