The Franco Hughes team will be bringing away betting to this weekend’s point-to-point action, as they will be represented at Portrush on Saturday, and weather permitting at The Pigeons on Sunday.
Saturday’s Route meeting at Portrush will be expected to draw a good crowd, and the Franco Hughes team will be in the betting ring providing racegoers with the opportunity to watch and bet on the day’s away action, which includes the big race at Ascot where it is Champions Day, along with the Listed Trigo Stakes at Leopardstown.
On Sunday, the away action will include an Irish double header, with a Grade B Chase at Cork taking center stage, alongside the listed Garnet Stakes from Naas.
