[Curragh To Curragh @CurraghTo]

The cycle goes ahead as planned tomorrow.

Met Eireann told us this afternoon that they believe the worst of the rain will have passed through the Kildare area by 9am.

Maybe some drizzle or showers after that but hopefully not too bad.
👍👍🚴🚴🤞🤞

[Curragh To Curragh @CurraghTo]

@davies_1_ Yep. For sure Tom.
All systems go.
Met Eireann told us the worst of the rain will be gone by 9am and then drizzly rain or some showers are that.

[The Curragh Racecourse @curraghrace]

A very special family connection continues at The Curragh. ❤️

This Saturday, Dermot Weld’s grandson Alastair Weld will make his riding debut in the Pat Smullen Charity Race, raising funds and awareness for pancreatic cancer research through Cancer Trials Ireland.

For Dermot, it will be a particularly poignant moment. Pat Smullen was not only his long-time stable jockey, but a great friend, with the pair enjoying countless memorable days together at The Curragh and around the world.

Now, another generation of the Weld family will take to the track in Pat’s memory.

Join us for Pat Smullen Race Day this Saturday, 29 August, as the racing community comes together once again for a cause that means so much to so many. 💗
