Nature abhors a vacuum and Pat O’Driscoll abhors a blank Saturday, hence another Club Handicap on the Crawfordsburn Trail at the weekend. David Seaton led the charge home followed by a fast-finishing Norman Lellyett and Thomas Simpson. George Bell set off last and sure enough was the fastest on actual times, ahead of Norman Lellyett and Thomas Simpson.
There were some good improvements since the Christmas Handicap a month ago from Hugh Young (half a minute), Norman Lellyett( a minute), Nicola Simpson ( a minute and a half), and Pat O’Driscoll (two Minutes).
