Mr. Mark Flanagan:

On average, trotting would be €2,000 per race.

For pacers, which is a different form of racing, it would be approximately €500 to €700. Le Trot allocated €192,000 to us this year but we have to make up €288,000 in order to draw down that €192,000. That is €192,000 that is coming directly into the Irish economy from France in 2018. In 2017, it gave us €158,000. Again that is 40% of the allocation and we had to come up with the other 60%. We envisage our total prize money this year to be approximately €750,000. It is a fair portion.
