IRISH HORSE RACING
When you think of Ireland, you think of Guinness, leprechauns and 'great craic' and almost as synonymous with the Emerald Isle is Horse Racing. The Punchestown Festival, Galway Festival and Irish Grand National are the key dates on the Irish Racing calendar that we have covered with specific sites.
The Punchestown Festival takes place at the end of April each year, with many familiar names from the Cheltenham appearing at the County Kildare track to either confirm or avenge Festival form. Our Punchestown site provides extensive coverage of the five day meeting with odds, tips and results for all races.
Ireland's most popular race meeting is the Galway Festival, which takes place in at the end of July each year over six days on the country’s West Coast. What makes this fixture so unique is that it is the only one both in Ireland and England that combines both National Hunt and Flat racing but there is so much more to this event with festivities in the city going on after racing each day.
The Cheltenham Festival or Punchestown Festival it is not in terms of quality but from a popularity perspective, it is a big week of traffic and one that drives great acquisition for bookmakers.
The Irish Flat Racing scene is covered within the pages of Betting Directory and all Group races, including the Irish Derby, Guineas and Champion Stakes are all covered in great depth on the site and attract plenty of interest in the run up to and on the day of the races.
INTERNATIONAL HORSE RACING
Whilst Moneta's core racing business concerns the UK and Irish markets, we have adapted an international flavour to our product portfolio with sites catering for some of the world’s most popular race meetings, these include: The Breeders Cup meeting in America, Australia’s Melbourne Cup, Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe in France and the Dubai World Cup.
These one off events provide huge volumes of traffic from both horse racing fans in the UK as well as those in the country’s hosting. We adapt our content to cater for international visitors and whilst betting is restricted in some locations, our International Racing opportunities provide a great chance for brand exposure in new markets or for international bookmakers to partner with Moneta to maximise the potential of these popular one off events.
