The point-to-point season may well be over but it was a busy weekend at the South Union Foxhounds’ track at Farrangalway where the staging of two one-day events proved a useful, cost-effective exercise.

On Saturday, the Muskerry Branch hosted the first southern qualifier of this year’s Irish Pony Club/Connolly’s Red Mills eventing series while, on Sunday, Knocknamanna Country staged a round of the Association of Irish Riding Clubs/TRI Equestrian one-day event series at the Kinsale venue.
