Armoy Clerk of The Course, William Munnis:
“We’re delighted with the number and calibre of riders joining us this year. With returning favourites, newcomers and international teams set to take part, spectators can expect a great weekend of racing.
We have over 40 newcomers this year, and we have a few races that are oversubscribed but as a Club we are really-keen to ensure that everyone gets some track time – we are going to run some B races too.
Friday will be interesting, it always is, but if we get it right, Saturday should take care of itself.”
