My final thoughts on the weekend was how much the credit crunch had effected the coursing clans of Kerry. We worked out that over 350,000 euros had been spent by the owners of the dogs and bitches in the Oaks and Derby Stakes. With a sapling averaging over 1,000 euros with rearing, training and entry fees all on top you can't knock the committment to reach the hallowed ground of Clonmel. The pub on Sunday night was rammed with locals drinking as if it was being given away.
