A Proper Day Out
Situated in the heart of Ireland, Kilbeggan is one of five National Hunt (jumps) racecourses. Kilbeggan is a very popular summer track and the valuable AXA Farm Insurance Midlands National Handicap Chase is a recognised trial for the Galway Plate and other major festival races. It is a tight right-handed track and the runners are nearly always on a turn and uphill, presenting quite a challenge for the jockeys who ride there. The vast majority of race meetings are held in the evening time which only adds to the attraction of the course which is located close to the town of Kilbeggan, itself a popular tourist venue in County Westmeath. The racecourse caters for all hospitality, facilities for gourmet meals and special discounted packages for larger groups. Free parking a short distance from the track allows for easy accessibility.Check out the upcoming race meeting at Kilbeggan Racecourse and experience a proper day out.
