The Boylesports Easter festival takes place at Fairyhouse this weekend with the feature race the Irish Grand National taking place at 5 o’clock on Easter Monday.

At the moment the condition of the track is being monitored as officials decide whether or not they need to put more or less water on it to make perfect conditions for the weekends action.

Peter Roe is the General Manager of Fairyhouse and took time out from preparations to talk to us about getting ready for one of the Irish sporting calendars big days.
