The Ballymac Vic progeny out of Auntie is the most prolific litter of open race winners in Britain this year with 34 victories spread between four different offspring. The average winning distance is 304m.

Skate On actually has 39 wins to her name though they are split between two litters. Out of interest, the Tullymurry Act crop have an average winning distance of 414m, compared to the Eden The Kids of 485m. Given the stamina of the younger litter, that gap seems almost certain to widen.

There are five ‘Droopys’ dams on the table, though only four who are still based in Waterford. Look out too for the influence of Westmead Hawk as sire of four of the dozen dams.
