Clonmel Races launch ‘All-In’ ticket for Clonmel Oil Raceday
An ‘All-In’ ticket that includes admission, a race card and lunch in the Club Stand Carvery Restaurant has been launched by Clonmel Races ahead of the prestigious Grade 2 Clonmel Oil Chase on Thursday, November 15.
Costing just €20, the ‘All-In’ ticket must be pre-purchased online at www.clonmelraces.ie. Clonmel Oil took on the sponsorship of this 2½ mile chase in 2003 when victory went to the Henrietta Knight-trained Edredon Bleu. Since then the roll of honour has included such household names as War Of Attrition, Sizing Europe, Champagne Fever and Road To Riches. There was a popular local winner in 2017 when the Mouse Morris-trained Alpha Des Obeaux left subsequent Ryanair Chase winner Balko Des Flos and Aintree Grand National winner Tiger Roll in his wake.
Normal admission on the day is €15 for Adults and €10 for OAP/Students. Anyone purchasing €30 worth or more of fuel from Clonmel Oil at either of their service stations will also be entered in a draw to win one of 50 pairs of tickets for the day.
DJ Histon, Manager of Clonmel Racecourse, said: “We are thrilled that Clonmel Oil have confirmed their sponsorship of our flagship race for the 16th consecutive year. There was a wonderful atmosphere at the racecourse 12 months ago and we hope to build on that with our ‘All-In’ ticket and music after racing. Owners and trainers have always been great to support the Clonmel Oil Chase and we very much look forward to an exciting renewal on November 15.”
