Clonmel Racecourse have announced details of this year’s Clonmel Oil Steeplechase.
It is due to take place at Powerstown Park on Thursday November 17.
This will be the 20th year of sponsorship by Clonmel Oil and the race has an illustrious roll of honour which includes household names like Dorans Pride, Beef Or Salmon, War Of Attrition, Sizing Europe and Douvan.
Last year’s race was won by the Joseph O’Brien-trained Fakir D’Oudairies, which followed up his Clonmel Oil Chase success with Grade 1 wins at Ascot and Aintree.
Eugene Cooney, Marketing Manager at Clonmel Racecourse, says they are looking forward to welcoming back a big crowd on November 17 for their feature race of the year, following two years of Covid restrictions.
