Win a nomination to WALK IN THE PARK!

Owing to the success of last year’s promotion, Coolmore NH Sires are running a similar draw this year which will take place on the 15th July 2024 at Castlehyde Stud. Breeders who have a mare covered by Bolshoi Ballet, In Swoop, Mogul or Pyledriver before the date of the draw will get one ticket for each mare they send.

The first ticket drawn entitles the holder to a free nomination to Walk in the Park for the 2025 season, the second a free nomination to Crystal Ocean for the 2025 season and the third ticket a free nomination for the 2025 season to the ticket holder’s choice of Bolshoi Ballet, In Swoop, Mogul or Pyledriver.

“We have some really exciting young stallions here at The Beeches,” said Robert McCarthy. “With last year’s draw proving so popular, the Magnier and McCarthy families were keen to do it again.”
