Magners sparkles at Down Royal Festival

More than 6,000 people enjoyed one of Northern Ireland’s most popular race day meetings recently at the Magners Derby Day, part of the Summer Festival of Racing at Down Royal Racecourse.

As Northern Ireland’s richest flat race, the Magners Derby prize pot of €100,000 attracted a high calibre of horses and jockeys.  It was Wexford Town, ridden by Kevin Manning, which was trained and bred by his father-in-law Jim Bolger that came out on top as this year’s winner.

The brand took the opportunity to let hospitality guests sample Magners Light, impeccably served over ice. Maners has introduced a pint bottle to its range just in time for summer – offering all the crisp, refreshing flavour and natural character you’d expect from Magners Original for a third fewer calories.
