And for a small, but dedicated band of local volunteers behind its staging it was an occasion which arguably could not have gone any better..
With an unprecedented level of prizemoney, reflective of the vast level of entries last Sunday prompted, surpassing it with its 2023 equivalent could be easier said than done.
