Feel free to share:

WHILE we can’t go racing at the Fairyhouse Easter Festival due to pandemic-related restrictions there is still a lot going on amid home comforts, including three great days of top class racing to watch and competitions to win in the run-up to 3^rd-5^th April.

Happening right now online at #BeInvolved is the Fairyhouse Easter Festival Bake Off, which took place at Dunboyne Castle in Meath Ireland with four would-be Irish bakers. Legendary Irish jockey and author Barry Geraghty took on the Irish Racing Post’s editor David Jennings and top trainers Noel Meade and Jim Dreaper at the historic hotel and spa with Executive Head Chef John Burke, who put the fearsome foursome through their paces to produce the best Easter Chocolate Cake bake with sometimes hilarious results! Get the recipe online at https://www.fairyhouse.ie and answer the same ‘Bakers Brainteaser’ questions put to horseracing’s experts to win a signed copy of Barry Geraghty’s book, ‘True Colours’. The competition closes on 1 April.
