With the Magners Derby the highlight of the race card, it is no less competitive away from the racetrack with the ‘Best Dressed Lady Competition’ also taking place on Saturday 22 June, when frocks, fascinators, heels and hats will be the order of the day.

This year, the principal sponsor has been confirmed as Jack Murphy Jewellers, one of the leading jewellers in Ireland and one of Newry’s major shopping destinations.
