It's back. Details of the hugely popular Irish Thoroughbred Marketing Stallion Trail, scheduled to take place on Friday January 10 and Saturday January 11, have been revealed with many of the country's top stallion farms set to open up to breeders, racing professionals and fans alike.
ITM CEO Charles O'Neill commented, “Across the world Irish stallions are recognised among the global elite and continually produce winners in racing's most competitive events on the flat and over jumps. In 2025 the Irish stallion roster will once again be boosted with more top talent, offering breeders a diverse pool of proven producers, rising stars, and hot prospects to suit any mare or budget. The ITM Irish Stallion Trail is always a highlight of the year for breeders and fans alike and we are very grateful to participating farms for opening their doors and showcasing Ireland's exceptional thoroughbred breeding industry. Register now via the ITM website and we will see you on the Trail.”
The ITM Irish Stallion Trail is a completely free event. Visitors are simply asked to register which studs they intend to visit via the ITM website. Visitors are then free to visit their chosen studs at the time of their choosing within the studs' advertised opening hours. Due to demand, it is mandatory to register for a specific date and time slot if planning to visit Coolmore Stud. Please note that due to evolving stallion vaccination and quarantine requirements, participating studs and available stallions may be subject to change.
