Ernie Gaskin’s range continues in strong form with brother and sister Roman Empire (Monmore) and Droopys Aoife (Romford) both making the list. Killeacle Gus makes his second appearance on the chart in a fortnight following his fastest heat win in the Coral Winter Derby at Hove.

Kenton Storm earned the Harlow nomination with the year’s first new track record. There was a close call at Nottingham with Cronody Zero’s five-timer just edging out a quality run from Kellsboro Sky. Another gallant runner-up is Poole’s Kilgowan Blake with an excellent 14.94 sprint. The nod though goes (again) to the remarkable veteran Ballyoak Badger with a 26.92 run for the 450 and six consecutive top heat wins.

But pride of place on the table must go to the Sheffield super veteran Shotgun Slade following his nine length graded win in race number 246.
