what is a INHY FLAT RACE - is like a UK NH flat race?
race details:
PEGGY BARRY-WALSH MEMORIAL (PRO/AM) INHY FLAT RACE

somewhat off topic - but if you missed the Dave Allen tribute show it's on iPlayer - well worth a watch. Now I know where my love of Irish accents began...

I reckon it's a spelling mistake, and that the 'Y' shouldn't be there.

That race was open to horses that have not run in a race under any rules of racing according to the RP
What the "Y" stands for, I don't know. Maybe similar to the British "Newcomers" NHF |

ah right, that Y was puzzling me too - thanks

Clutching at straws here, but may stand for "yearly", seeing that it's a memorial race, "y" could indicate that it's going to be an ongoing future race, whereas other races/cards can change yearly, bequest may have been made to the racecourse to hold the race yearly. It wasn't ran in 2012, so no back reference to confirm, like I said just clutching at straws.
Ged, may have hit the nail on the head. |

Given the proximity of the letters on a keyboard it looks like someone has hit the 'H' and the 'Y' keys simultaneously.
 Simply an INH race at..... http://www.irishracing.com/result?prc=071&prd=201304271810 |
