Hide AdNoel Johnston, Clerk of the Course said: “I think it goes without saying that I’m very pleased with the final entry list and think it says a lot about the popularity of the event that the total number of entries are growing year on year, as is the number of newcomers coming to Dundrod.
“The two guys that everyone has been talking about; Michael Dunlop and Ian Hutchinson will both be there gunning for the top step of the podium, as well other major talents including Dean Harrison, Ivan Lintin, Lee Johnston, William Dunlop, Peter Hickman, Bruce Anstey, Dan Kneen, Conor Cummins and Christian Elkin.
“I’m also looking forward to seeing one of the higher profile newcomer’s first outing at the Ulster - Gary Dunlop. His Dad loved Dundrod and it’s going to be something special to see him there.”
“No matter what way you look at it, the scene has been set for a spectacular finale to the international road racing season,” added Johnston.
