Sligo Races

Sligo Racecourse is a right-handed, oval-shaped Irish horse racing venue in County Sligo, in the northwest of the country.

Although it isn’t used during the winter months, this track hosts both flat and National Hunt action over jumps.

Sligo races take place on a narrow, sharp track with a slight uphill finish.

Horses who do well here must corner well, because a circuit of the course is only about a mile round.

While Sligo is not as undulating as other tracks in Ireland, there are no major horse races that take place here right now making it one of the more modest venues used over the summer and autumn.

Sligo Racecourse Fixtures

  • Paul Townend was the leading active jumps jockey at Sligo races in the five National Hunt seasons between 2015-16 and 2019-29. He rode nine winners at a 30 per cent strike rate.
  • Trainer Willie Mullins, to who Townend is stable jockey, was top trainer in that period. He saddled 17 horses to victory at a 40 per cent success ratio.
  • Two riders on the flat operated at a 26 per cent win rate with their mounts in the five years from 2016 to 2020. They are Gary Carroll and Declan McDonogh.
  • Any horse representing the Jessica Harrington stable was well worth backing at Sligo Racecourse during that time. Although she wasn’t top trainer (with that honour falling to Dermot Weld), her horses had an incredible 46 per cent strike rate.

Sligo Racecourse Behind Closed Doors

Sligo races are currently being run behind closed doors because of the ongoing COVID-19 situation. This is set to be reviewed and updated in line with government advice, with Sligo Racecourse keen to welcome back punters as soon as it is safe to do so.

It’s still worth checking Sligo races fixtures because the decision to allow spectators in could change. If you book tickets to a Sligo Racecourse event that is then moved to behind closed doors, refunds will be processed through the official course website.
