OMEY Beach races near Clifden in Galway is always one of the best attended meetings on the circuit and last Sunday was no exception. A large crowd watched some exciting racing as both Ben Coen and Sam Ewing recorded doubles on the day.

Sam Ewing clearly recognised the advantage of front-running on a tight circular track with very little straight segments and he made all for his two wins. Banned Substance took the mile race for the Michael Flannery stable while Sam landed the 10-furlong race for Athy, Co Kildare owner/trainer Tom Fennelly.
