New Sponsor for 2023
Treo Eile were delighted to have Tattersalls Ireland come on board as the official sponsor of the series and it is a true testament to their ethos supporting thoroughbreds after their racing career finishes. Speaking at the launch of the series in the spring, Tattersalls Ireland CEO Simon Kerins said:
“We are delighted to be partnering with Treo Eile for the Showing Pathway Series 2023. This sponsorship aligns perfectly with our mission to support all aspects of the bloodstock industry and it is very important to us that we support racehorses following their career on the racecourse. This sponsorship in Ireland perfectly complements Tattersalls sponsorship of the Tattersalls/RoR Thoroughbred Show Horse Series which Tattersalls has sponsored in Britain since 2005. We are confident that this series will provide a fantastic platform for the successful transition of former racehorses into successful riding horses, and we look forward to seeing some of our graduates excel at their new careers in the showing ring.”
The Royal Meath Showgrounds will come alive with elegant displays of showmanship and horsemanship, as participants vie for top honours and valuable prizes. As well as the Tattersalls Ireland Showing Pathway Series Final, there will be three other thoroughbred classes on the day which are sure to draw a crowd. All the thoroughbred classes will take place in Ring 6 starting with the Ridden Thoroughbred Retraining class at 10am and the Tattersalls Ireland Treo Eile Showing Pathway Series Final kicking off at 2:00pm.
