THE midlands region held an additional meeting in Navan, Co. Meath last week but it had to be abandoned following the aborted 15hh race when deteriorating conditions resulted in falls for both Mikey Sheehy and Ben Bleahen. While Ben escaped relatively unscathed, Mikey was not so lucky and his season looks to have been brought to a premature end, although, more importantly, he was home and in good spirits by Monday.
