9th/10th July - Stephen Halpin followed up an impressive 2nd place in the Brendan Carroll Memorial in Stamullen on Wed by taking the Club C/ship 25 the next night with a time of 56.13 on a night where conditons could only be discribed as 'less than ideal'

29th June - Sean Lally once again wins the IVCA Age Standard 'Founders 50' , a race he has won every year since this and the IVCA website has been running, but it is also of note this race was won by Sean as a scratch rider in the early days of the IVCA, but it has been said that he wasn't chasing a rider of his calibre then! Remakable then and now.
(checked - thats 7 in a row back to 2002. He was 2nd in 2001 and won it in 2000. I dont have records previous to that but we can check the cup - if anyone ever gets it off him!!!)
