Brudair day at Ballabuidhe

THE Brudair brothers from Listowel, Co. Kerry had a day to remember at the opening session of Ballabuidhe yesterday afternoon before a huge crowd at Droumleena Lawn, Dunmanway.

Gearoid and Kevin combined for a double apiece, including the featured Irish Examiner Derby with Follow Sue.

Kevin rode a peach of a race here and was in front from flag fall on Des O’Sullivan’s mare. On the final circuit last weekend’s Courtmacsherry hero Medicean Woman threw down a strong challenge but could never really get on terms and Follow Sue who had two lengths to spare at the line.
