About Fairyhouse Racecourse

Fairyhouse is a right-handed square track of 1 mile 6.5 furlongs with a run in of almost 3 furlongs and a slight uphill finish. It is located in County Meath 23 km north of Dublin and is home to both Flat and National Hunt racing.

The flat track is wide and galloping and is known to be a fair track which slightly favours those who race prominently.

The Jumps course consists of 11 fences and is most famous for staging the Irish Grand National during the three-day Easter meeting. Previous high-class winners at the course include the famous grey, Desert Orchid. The hurdles course presents eight hurdles and stages the Grade 1 Hatton?s Grace. Ireland?s favourite mare Honeysuckle along with the legendary Hurricane Fly and Istabraq are among past winners at Fairyhouse.

History of Fairyhouse Racecourse

The first ever meeting held at Fairyhouse was as early as 1848 when the Ward Union Hunt staged point-to-point racing on the land. From there, racing boomed and the Irish Grand National was established in 1870 with the first ever winner of the race Sir Robert Peel, taking home 167 sovereigns in prize money.

Improvements to the track are ongoing to ensure the standard of racing and facilities are top notch. In 1999 two brand new modern stands were built to house the growing crowds and its facilities are known to be some of the best in Ireland.
