Due to the race controller receiving a very poor forecast for Skibbereen tomorrow it has been decided to move the racepoint to Fermoy.

As the weather forecast for Fermoy tomorrow is uncertain and with the welfare of the birds in mind the East Down Combine weather committee have decided to move the Birds Roscrea. It is hoped with the high humidity & heat forecast for tomorrow the move to Roscrea will enable an early liberation.
