ABOUT ROSCOMMON RACES
Roscommon Racecourse has been hosting horse racing events since 1885, with a rich history that dates back to 1837.
The course is right-handed, with a length of one mile and two furlongs and a marked incline to the winning post.
Many of Ireland’s best-known racing personalities have their roots at Roscommon, and the course attracts support from leading trainers and jockeys in both Flat and National Hunt Racing.
