Over the coming weeks, we will be adding videos to some of the old point-to-point fixtures that we have on file. We are starting with the 2000 videos.
The Mid Antrim Hunt point-to-point at Ballymena in April 2000 is the next meeting to be added to the video archives.
Below gives a brief re-cap of what happened on the day.
Pull The Lever put in an impressive performance in the opening Confined Hunt Race at Ballymena when coming home easily in the hands of Warren Ewing for the local Kerr Family.
The winners of two contest provided spectators with a thrilling finish with Simply Run and Jimmy Jumbo battling it out all the way to the line with the latter in the hands of Eamon Magee just getting up close home.
The Claire MacMahon ridden Greyventure responded well to pressure to win the Ladies Open Lightweight.
The mares open lightweight was won by Whatyemaycalit and Peter Buchanan. The pair stayed on gamely to deny Crossmacahilly and Liam Lennon by two lengths.
The four & five-year-old maiden saw an impressive winner in the form of Ballybrophy when running out a 20-length winner in the hands of Liam Lennon.
It was quick race double for Liam Lennon who took the concluding six-year-old and upwards maiden aboard Lone Star.
