THE Route Hunt, of which well-known show jumper, breeder and bon viveur Philip White is chairman and master, ran their point-to-point last Saturday on the Loguestown Road outside Portrush, just down the road from Maddybenny.

Prior to the fixture, the first in the area for some years, hunt secretary Julie Smyth rode around the track with a headcam, giving owners, trainers and riders an idea of the layout. Julie, who acted as mounted steward on Saturday, was on board the Grade B gelding Redwood Humphreys who Philip competed in the amateur classes at Dublin in July.
