The fifth renewal of the hugely successful Connolly’s RED MILLS Irish EBF Auction Hurdle Series commenced at Limerick Racecourse in May. The series was designed to create opportunities for horses bought for €45,000/€30,000 or less at store sales in Ireland and the UK, thereby, giving owners and trainers an opportunity to claim some of the €395,000 prize-money on offer.
The conditions for the qualifying races specify that all horses must be by an EBF registered stallion and bought as an unraced three or four-year-old at a recognised National Hunt Store sale for €45,000/ €30,000 or less, with weight allowances depending on purchase price. In addition, the €5,000 Weatherbys/ITBA NH Fillies Bonus Scheme and the IRE Incentive scheme €10,000 Irish Sales voucher is in place for all races in the series.
