THE major contribution that retired Galway racecourse manager John Moloney has made, not alone to racing in Galway but also to Irish racing in general, was recognised by the Turf Club at the annual Moyglare Dinner last weekend.

Every year at the dinner the Turf Club honours an individual or an organisation who has had an exceptional year or who over a period of time has made an exceptional contribution to Irish racing. The presentation was made by outgoing Turf Club, Senior Steward, Neville O’Byrne.
