When did IRELAND invent horse racing?
It would not necessarily be true to say Ireland invented horseracing. Horses have been raced in many parts of the world for centuries. Ireland is particularly associated with the start of the "Steeplechase"in the 18th century. It came from cross-country thoroughbred horse races which went from church steeple to church steeple, hence "steeplechase". The first steeplechase is said to have been a race from Buttevant Church to St. Leger Church in Doneraile, in Cork, Ireland. Most of the early races were cross country. The first recorded steeplechase over a prepared track with fences was run in Bedlam, North Yorkshire, England in 1810. Ireland is still one of the leading countries in the world for breeding horses and for horseracing in general. It is a very big sport in Ireland, and horsebreeding, horse training and other equine-related industry is also very important in Ireland.
