The re-enactment of the Races of Castlebar in August 1948 was so successful, it was held again the next day to raise monies for the Army Benevolent Fund. The President, Sean T O’Kelly and An Taoiseach, John A Costello attended along with the Leader of the Opposition, Eamon de Valera. It’s estimated that over twenty thousand people converged on the town for the celebrations.
