THE popular Clarecastle Show is back on the calendar this year with a new date set for Saturday, July 18th. Alongside the Brian Boru young horse, Shannon Connemara ponies and Banner broodmare championships is the new €5,000 Fergus foal championship.

“Yes, we’re back,” said show chairman Michael Slattery, who also confirmed that the show will be held on the same ‘old turf’ setting as the 2024 show field.
