    Worth knowing: No racing in 2026: HRI moved all 11 fixtures elsewhere while the all-weather track is built. The Irish Field (11 Sept 2026) says racing should begin in November 2027, not October as stated in the task. All prices and policies here date from before the closure and may change when it reopens. The HRI 2027 fixture list (September 2026) gives the new all-weather track nine evening fixtures from 23 October 2027; an earlier Irish Field report said November, so check before travelling.
