Punters experienced marginally the better of the exchanges at yesterday’s Dungarvan Harriers point-to-point fixture, which took place at Affane as opposed to the normal Kilossera venue, and the well-supported 6/4 favourite Davy From Milan provided them with plenty of cause for cheer by triumphing in the eight-runner open lightweight.

IT was an afternoon of firsts at yesterday’s well-attended Dungarvan Harriers point-to-point meeting at Kilossera as riders’ Paul Kiely, Daragh Howard and Michael Roche all attained their initial career victories.

JAMES Spillane (20) from Conna partnered his first winner when landing a vintage renewal of the novice riders open aboard the admirable mare Dr Doocey, trained by his brother Mark for Mrs Rita Doocey from Lismore, at the twice postponed Dungarvan Harriers point at Kilossera yesterday.
