Sadly the event was marred by an accident. Ian Sutton (San Fairy Ann) was hit by a car at the entrance to the boot fair on the road to Brookland. We understand that he sustained a broken collar bone and wish him a speedy revovery.
A fine, rather chilly morning with the usual wind which never seems to offer any help on this course.
