NEXT Sunday’s meeting at Dromahane, organised by the Duhallow Foxhounds, will be run as a fund-raiser for the hunt, the Irish Injured Jockeys fund and the fledgling Point-to-Point Handlers’ Association.

In a bid to attract more spectators, the fixture will feature a six-furlong flat race for members of the Irish Pony Club, a dog show and, as this vegetarian writer has been told, “a range of top-class food including O’Cralaoi Craft Butchers who will present their renowned homemade burgers and mouth-watering sausages’’.
