AFTER a two-year break due to Covid-19, the challenge of a lifetime returns. The team at Irish Injured Jockeys (IIJ) is delighted to confirm that the Corinthian Challenge Charity Race Series is back this year.

Lifetime challenge

The series offers participants anopportunity like no other, the chance to experience what it is like to be a jockey riding at some of Ireland’s best tracks on race days.

Riders will not only have the chance of winning each of the three races but they will also accumulate points for placings throughout the series with the overall winner of the series to be announced at the final race.

It takes a driven and committed person to take on the Corinthian Challenge, someone who can get race fit and maintain that level for over four months.

They have to work with trainers, source horses and raise funds for IIJ.

Adrenaline

Previous Corinthian challengers describe the series as “unbelievable”, “the best experience of my life”, “adrenaline pumping”, “the ultimate personal challenge”, “a thousand dreams come true and epic!”
