Ban squeezing point to point scene, says Clare horseman
March 5, 2021
ONE of the leading voices in the Irish Point to Point scene is Newmarket’s Ger Hannon, who is well known to all those who attend the grass roots events throughout the region.
A regular commentator both on the track and on the airwaves, he is among the cohort who are looking forward to having regular race meetings back up and running once more.
Following Government advice, point to point racing was halted on January 13 with hopes initially expressed that action could return on March 5.
The most recent Government update on Level 5 restrictions put paid to that, with April 5 now being the date after which it is hoped that racing can resume once more between the flags.
