Day on Tues 19th September: Cheltenham Gold Cup winner, Kicking King;
English Grand National winners, Numbersixvalverde and Hedgehunter;
four-time Hennessy Cognac Gold Cup winner, Florida Pearl; triple
Champion Hurdle winner, Istabraq; dual Champion Hurdle winner, Hardy
Eustace, current Two Mile Champion Chaser, Newmill, and the remarkable
pair of Limestone Lad and Solerina, successful in 57 races between them.
Brian Kavanagh, Chief Executive of HRI said: "It is a fitting conclusion
to the Ryder Cup Race Day featuring the Shelbourne Hotel Goffs Million
that we have arranged a Parade of Champions in the parade ring after the
last race and they will form part of a full programme of events. It is
a wonderful opportunity to highlight the heroes of the Irish racing who
have achieved so much success at home and abroad."
