FERGAL Nesbitt has competed at Tyrella on the odd occasion over the years with his previous visit to the Co Down seaside venue before last weekend being in 2014.

Hopefully, it won’t be as long before the Tipperary event rider heads back to the Corbett family’s estate but he didn’t enjoy the best of days on his latest venture north which started at 2am on Saturday when he left home with two horses in a box filled to the brim with diesel.
