It was a photo finish between the stunning weather and the natural beauty of Portsalon yesterday as locals and visitors flocked to the seaside village for the annual horse racing event.
Even better was the fact that the event was in aid of the Donegal Hospice.
Clive Wasson was on hand to capture all the thrills and the spills of what proved to be a memorable day out for everyone.
