Redevelopment work is underway at the home of Irish horse racing.
As anyone that has even an atom of Irish heritage will tell you, today is St Patrick’s Day. Today is also the culmination of the Cheltenham Festival, a highlight of the jump racing season and another cause for Irish celebration and merriment.
So what better time to bring you a film that brings together all things Irish, all things horse racing and all tings demolition.
As this film sows, redevelopment work at The Curragh – the world-famous spiritual home of Irish horse racing – is now underway. And a PP O’Connor high reach excavator – a long way from its Manchester home – is hard at work taking down one of the stands.
