Irish Stallion Trail back to normal in January after going virtual this year
Registration for studs and stallions you would like to visit opens in November
The Irish Thoroughbred Marketing Irish Stallion Trail will take place on Friday, January 14 and Saturday, January 15, 2022.
More than 20 stallion farms are set to participate in the Trail, which is now in its eighth year. Having gone virtual in 2021, it returns to its usual format in January and will offer breeders, racing professionals and racing fans the opportunity to view some of the world’s leading Flat and National Hunt stallions.
In announcing the dates for the ITM Irish Stallion Trail 2022, Alex Cairns of ITM said: “It is great to have the ITM Irish Stallion Trail back in its usual format for 2022. Irish-bred horses have again made their presence felt in the world’s most competitive races in 2021 and much of this success is down to Ireland’s top-class stallions and the farms that they call home.
"We encourage as many people as possible to get the dates in the diary and support a hugely valuable Irish industry.”
The ITM Irish Stallion Trail is a completely free event. Visitors are simply asked to register which studs they intend to visit via the ITM website. Registrations will open in mid-November 2021.
Visitors are then free to visit their studs at the time of their choosing within the studs' advertised opening hours.
Please note that due to demand it is mandatory to register for a specific date and time slot in order to visit Coolmore Stud.
The dates and format of the Trail may still be subject to change.
For further information, go online.
Any more studs wishing to participate can contact Alex Cairns at acairns@itm.ie or +353(0)87 791 5690.
