ANOTHER weekend of weather problems delayed the local racing, the NIPA collections were deferred until Saturday and after many delays finally released in Clonmel County Tipperary at 2.15pm Sunday 4th May in a helping SW wind.
It was all worth the bother and the Liberation team need congratulated on once again getting the race right, winning birds returned at a mile a minute in a great afternoon/early evening. It was the fourth race of the old bird season and yet again we have almost full returns.
Collections for Pilmore Beach next week are one hour earlier.
