INFC – Yearling Nat Result Update 19/06/13

The annual Yearling Nat was due to be flown on 12^th June but was put back due to poor weather conditions, the race was flown one week later with an entry of 4,400 birds similar to recent seasons, competing for almost £35,000 in pools and prizes. This is always one of the top highlight of the old bird racing season, liberation on Wednesday 19^th June was at 8.30am in a Light NW wind and helping conditions in Ireland. First reports indicate it was one of the very best races, flown on a fantastic day with 1,000 day birds recorded and all positions claimed. Joe Brown from Lurgan had a great race having four birds in the clock before 16.50hrs and the first one timed at 16.13hrs declared the overall winner doing velocity 1151 flying just over 300 miles. It’s always been a favourite race for Mr & Mrs McNeilly of Doagh & District, Brian and Elaine timed their first bird at 16.45hrs flying 324 miles to record velocity 1149 to take 2^nd Open INFC.  Kevin Rooney Son & Daughter from Annalong had the first arrival in the East Down Combine, they timed at 15.40hrs and recorded velocity 1145 for the 279 miles for 3^rd Open INFC.
