The Irish EBF Ballyhane Stakes at Naas Racecourse continues to garner the attention of trainers and owners on both sides of the Irish Sea and beyond as it has attracted an initial entry of over 300 horses. 

Now in its fifth year, the Irish EBF Ballyhanes Stakes is firmly established as a marquee race for two-year-olds. 

The marquee is for two year old horses only that are EBF eligible and whose sire established one or more yearling sales in the relevant year with a median price of not more than €75,000.

The total prize pool will once again remain at €300,000 with €150,000 to the winner and connections all the way down to tenth getting a share of the spoils. 

Of the 322 entries, 134 are fillies while among last years winner Hugo Palmer’s possible runners in this years renewal is another son of Galileo Gold, Seagulls Eleven.
