They call themselves the People’s Republic so of course they need their own Grand National. The paddypower.com Cork National is one of the most exciting races on the Irish racing calendar and you could be making the trip to the Rebel County for the VIP treatment. Passport not necessary.
This year’s race takes place on Sunday 1st November and we’ve got a fantastic trip for two people to enjoy this prestigious day thanks to the nice guys in the Paddy Power marketing department who haven’t used up all the complimentary tickets for themselves. This prize is so good we like to call it the Ceann Comhairle Treatment and includes:
- Reserved Enclosure entrance tickets
- Complimentary race card and tipster
- Four course silver service meal in the restaurant
- Complimentary drinks for the afternoon
- Overnight accommodation in Cork
- €200 travel expenses
- €200 free Paddy Power betting vouchers
To decide who gets the prize, we’re going to play a game badly named ‘If You Like It You Should Find A Ring On It’. Cork hurling legend, Christy Ring is hiding somewhere on paddypower.com (the bit with the sports odds, not the poker, casino, games, bingo etc. bits) and all you need to do is find out where he is and tell us.
This is what he looks like:
Email your answer and your username to competitions@paddypower.com.
There is a clue and it’s that he’s hiding somewhere vaguely related to this competition.
In the highly likely event that more than one person finds Christy, the winner will be drawn at random. Entries in the comments section won’t be counted, but feel free to use it to send your opponents on wild-goose chases. Closing date for entires is 12pm on Tuesday 27th October and the Paddy Power decision is final.

by the way sleeping bag the manager of the restaurant is SEAN COTTER a very nice gentleman always looks after me when i go down.i can tell you a good story.i was a painter when they rebuilt the track and facilities,on the friday before they opened on the sunday they had to do a trial run so when we finished work on friday we all had to go up to the restaurant and eat all the food ,need to say the manager of the track supplied us with free drink and it was quite a memorable night.i must say it was one of the better jobs pierces done that was down to the foreman JIM DEVINE a kerryman no doubt and a sound fella.
