A large entry of 160 has been received for the annual Bree Hunt point-to-point races at Monksgrange, Rathnure tomorrow (Sunday).
Weather forecast is mainly dry. First race at 2pm.
Going will be ‘soft’. There will be some alterations to the track relating to the position of the winning post and the final two fences, but there is a good covering of grass and the track is in great order.
Racing today (Saturday) took place at Portrush, Co. Antrim where Eamonn Doyle saddled newcomer Lutece Borget, a winner by seven and a half lengths under Jamie Scallan in the maiden race for mares aged five or plus.
Barry O’Neill rode Winged Leader to his record 37th career victory in the Open Race for Fermanagh handler David Christie. The verdict was a neck.
