Local charity, the Help Emma Beat It Fund, was the beneficiary of last weekend’s show.

While many Banner County spectators slipped away to watch the match, the wait by two Clare combinations paid off when Tommy O’Gorman’s consistent Dysart Lily, by Maltstriker with her VDL Arkansas colt and Stephen Culliney’s Ghareeb mare Kilkeany Mystic, plus her OBOS Quality filly, once again booked their places in The Irish Field Breeders Championship.
