Midweek Race Result from Navan 30/07/14

With both transporters full of racers and trainers it made for a very good race. The birds were liberated at 12:15 in very good conditions. The main bunch cleared right away to leave approximately 200 still hanging around. Much to our surprise this batch headed off for Dublin and out of sight.  5 mins later they came back over our heads at full speed straight for home. Wow, what a fantastic sight to see the birds in full flight!

With the wind from the west we felt the coastal men were favourites but those city boys are so hard to beat...

Jonny Porter & Son takes the top spot with the partnership of Eddie McAuley, Kell & Bowles taking the next 3 positions.
