IT’S good news from Galway Races in this week’s column. They have confirmed that two days of racing from this year’s Summer Festival will be broadcast live on TG4 on Friday, 30th and Saturday, 31st of July.

The live coverage on TG4 will include a packed race programme, with 15 races shown over the two days to a free-to-air audience. The live broadcast will be a welcome return to the racecourse for the Irish language broadcaster, who last aired the races in 2006.
