THERE were no fewer than nine races and 98 runners at Saturday’s 30th anniversary Stonehall Harriers meeting at Ballysteen, and the Jonathan Fogarty-trained newcomer Night League (6/4 - 5/4 favourite) lit up the fixture for many by annihilating the opposition in the first division of the four-year-old maiden.

The well-touted Night League, a €37,000 foal purchase who was acquired by current connections for €55, 000 at last year’s Tattersalls Ireland July sale, moved through to dispute the running from the fifth of the 15 obstacles with Hadahi.
