He’s one of the best-known names in the horseracing world and he’s on his way to Letterkenny this Sunday.

Horseracing icon Jonjo O’Neill

Jonjo O’Neill’s name is synonymous with both riding horses and training them.

This Sunday he will be at the Letterkenny Races which are being held in Ballyare.

Jon Joe will be at the event to cheer on his son, also Jonjo.

The 15 year old is building up a major name for himself and he is hoping to get across the line first in two races this Sunday.

The meeting, which holds a seven race card, gets off at 2.30pm.

This is the 20th year of the annual Letterkenny Race meeting and a large crowd is expected at the venue.
