Description
HEALY RACING photography and Richard Pugh share their passion and knowledge of Ireland's unique point-to-point horse racing scene.

At hundreds of pop-up races around the country dramas are played out, and horses, such as Best Mate and Honeysuckle, and riders, including Derek O'Connor, Jamie Codd, Davy Russell and Rachael Blackmore, begin their glittering careers.
