Irish focus returns to Global Champions League

This week Portugal hosts a round of the Longines Global Champions Tour (LGCT) as the action moves to the coastal venue of Estoril. Irish riders Bertram Allen, Michael Duffy, Denis Lynch, Darragh Kenny, and Mark McAuley will all be in the hunt for individual purses as well as appearances for their respective Global Champions League (GCL) teams.

McAuley is the only one of the above who was at this past weekend’s Stockholm round where he helped the Madrid In Motion team to a third-place finish with a second-day clear on Jasco vd Bisschop having picked up eight faults on Valentino Tuiliere the previous day.
