THE East Antrim Harriers hosted the second day of their Easter fixture at Loughanmore on Monday, courtesy of landowner Wilson Dennison. Huge credit must go to the hunt committee, who carried out immense work on Sunday to repair the track and parking areas following heavy rainfall from Storm Dave.

Although fields were smaller on Monday, the card still produced a cracking day’s racing and drew a large crowd. Smithytown (6/4 - 5/4 favourite) set the tone, providing Stephen Connor and Stuart Crawford with the opening leg of a treble in the four-year-old maiden restricted to horses bought for €25,000 or less as unraced three-year-olds.
