BELLEWSTOWN racecourse will be forever synonymous with Irvinestown’s Barney Curley who master-minded the most famous betting coup in the history of Irish racing after he successfully pulled off the Yellow Sam coup in 1975.
Ellie Kisyombe, the social activist and former Social Democrat candidate, has thanked the judge who decided to strike out an assault charge against her last week.
Frankie Dettori and Willie Mullins are set to return to Bellewstown later today for the Barney Curley Charity Cup. This is the second year of this very special race meeting which has seen the racecourse raise over €200,000 for Barney Curley’s charity Direct Aid for Africa (DAFA).
