Punchestown Crowned Ireland's Best Race Track Punchestown was officially crowned as Ireland's best racecourse at the 2009 Sports Betting Awards ceremony in the Burlington Hotel, Dublin. The Home of Irish National Hunt racing prevailed in the hotly contested category against a total of eight other finalists from around the country. The judges were particularly impressed by Punchestown's ability to meet the selection criteria through their dynamic and innovative commercial approach this year. The judging panel also complimented Punchestown on their delivery of an enhanced customer experience throughout the racing season. This year's Punchestown Festival provided a much needed boost to both the racing and betting industries by attracting a huge audience both on and off course for what is considered the racing highlight of the Irish calendar. Dick O Sullivan said "We are thrilled to receive this award, it recognises the effort and dynamic thinking of the entire team at Punchestown. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank all those who contribute to making Punchestown racecourse the success it is especially our loyal sponsors and dedicated racegoers". Punchestown's next race meeting will take place Wednesday 14th October. For further information please visit www.punchestown.com
