DO you dream of riding the Irish Derby course at the Curragh? Here’s your chance!

Applications are now open for the Corinthian Challenge Charity Race, which takes place on Friday June 27th, the first day of the Dubai Duty Free Irish Derby Festival.

Previous participants have described the Corinthian Challenge as “extraordinary,” “the most amazing experience of my life,” “thrilling,” “the ultimate personal test,” “a dream come true,” and “epic.”

Each participant must raise a minimum of €3,000 to take part, with all proceeds going towards Irish Injured Jockeys (IIJ). Those wishing to take part must also complete an interview and pass a race riding assessment at the Racing Academy and Centre of Education (RACE).

The closing date for applications is April 7th. For further information, visit www.corinthianchallenge.com, or call Michael, Alisha or Nicole in the IIJ office on 045 533011.
