This Open Stake was held on Sunday 5^th December 2010 on Ilaunmore by kind permission of Mr.Michael Manke.  Judges for the day were Mr. Tom O’Connor (A) and Mr. Pat Brennan (A).  The Steward of the Beat was Mr. Vincent Kyne who as usual had the trial moving in the right direction and kept us in a steady supply of game. This trial was very well supported with us having 12 reserves on the card before the day commenced. We were yet again kindly sponsored by Massbrook Petfoods and also Atkinson Brothers, who very kindly provided the winner with a voucher for a pair of Le Chameau Wellies. The winner was also presented with the “Open Season” Perpetual Shield. The Club would like to thank everybody who braved the adverse weather conditions to support this event.
