The opening semi-final of Saturday’s Shelbourne Open 600 will be a four-dog affair following the news that both Liberty Sport and Coosane Pickles have been withdrawn.
The former was due to race in the red of one, while Coosane Pickles was set to wear the stripes of six.
Jacktavern Turbo has also been withdrawn from the classic and trap two will be vacant in the second heat as a result.
