Agents go to the Races


Increasingly I have noticed estate agents and auctioneers getting involved in sponsoring horseracing in Ireland, lending their names to races across the country. Developers and construction firms have been part of this scene for quite some time, such notable events include the Pierse Hurdle and the largely Durkan New Homes sponsored day in Leopardstown over Christmas. Some examples of agents' participation include:

The Knight Frank Ganly Walters Novice Steeplechase
The Sherry Fitzgerald Stephenson Crean Handicap Steeplechase
The Sherry Fitzgerald Lettings Novice Hurdle
The Jordan Town & Country Estate Agents European Breeders Fund Summer Fillies Handicap
The Nolan & Brophy Auctioneers Flying Five Stakes
The DNG Nationwide Steeplechase for the Ladies Perpetual Cup

Fair play to them I say.
