Flying Hooves at Dawstown Point to Point

A few of the photos I took today at the Dawstown Point to Point. We’ve been very lucky in the last few years that the weather has been good when these races were held!

When you’re betting on the economy

The bookies will have a proper electronic board, not an inflexible board that looks like it was made for a child, when you know the tariffs odds will change.

After the race, the horses slowed down to a trot. Dawstown, this year.

After the horses parade, the jockeys mount their horses for the coming race. Ice cream is always popular, even on a cold hilltop on race day.

I attended the point to point horse racing this afternoon at Dawstown, Co. Cork, with others from Blarney Photography Club. We were lucky with the weather, even if it did become cold later on.

There was a good crowd there, and I recognised some faces from last year. If the shouting from the crowd is anything to go, they enjoyed the day too!

Place your bets at the races.

I've only been to a few point to point or other horse races, but you can rely on there being bookies present to take your money!

I had a great time today at the Dawstown Point-to-Point horse racing event! The races started at 2 pm and continued until 4.30 pm, and I went with some of my buddies from the Blarney Photography Club. We positioned ourselves near the second last jump, and it was a super fun day filled with lots of action and photography opportunities. I’m excited to share this selection of my favourite shots with you!
