Date Published: 01-Aug-2012
The crowds and the betting were well down as racegoers braved the elements at Ballybrit last evening.
The bookmakers turnover of 970 thousand euro was down nearly half a million euro on the Tuesday last year while the tote turnover of just 595 thousand euro was 75 and a half thousand euro less.
Just over 14 thousand people went through the turnstiles, three thousand four hundred less than last year.
They included Channel 4's Shameless actor Paddy Courtney and Minister Simon Coveney.
