Horse Racing Ireland has announced that the 2020 Horse Racing Ireland Awards will be broadcast free-to-air on Racing TV at 10 am next Tuesday, December 15.

The 50-minute programme, presented by Gary O’Brien, will also be available to view on HRI.ie and on all HRI social media channels.

The event is normally one of the highlights of the year and an opportunity for those across every level of the sport to meet up and enjoy looking back.

Last year’s event celebrated the life of Pat Smullen who sadly passed away earlier this year.

The award winners from 2019 are pictured above in more social times.

It has, even in the circumstances of Covid, been a year of exceptional achievement for Irish horses, jockeys and trainers around the world.

Members of the Irish racing media have determined the winners in seven categories and a public vote has chosen the winner of the Ride of the Year Award.

Horse Racing Ireland will also present a Contribution to the Industry Award and an Irish Racing Hero Award.
