This Sunday will mark the half way point in the 2008/9 Irish Coursing Season. The meeting midweek at New Ross saw as tipped Droopys Galvin romp home in the Derby Stake. This son of the Droopys Saunders x Fiery Mary could well be lifting the Derby title in Clonmel. Last weekend saw Derby King Brendan Matthews land a double at Carlow. The local lads are heading to Ballyduff where it looks like winning will be very tough given the very wet weather. I'll have an eye on Call Biddy in the all aged bitch as I tried to buy her at the end of last season. In the Cup I'll he hoping Donal's Flowonlovlyriver runs well but he may meet the very well fancied Siena Steel on day 2. To try and pick out a couple in the Oaks and Derby Stakes is impossible.
Whilst always having an interest in birding from a young age never really found my way to develop into serious hobby until recent years. Local patch is Salford Priors Gravel Pits; also enjoy Upton Warren in Worcestershire, Spurn, Northumberland, the Scillies and Slimbridge.
