With racing tailing off at the end of the year, we thought we would try something different this week and restrict the entries to ‘best runs by 2015 whelps’
It seemed a good idea at the time, though the shortage of young dogs was evident and some of the performances made it to the table simply because there was very little else to choose from.
In fact only 119 of the 398 winners were ’15 whelps with the Shelbourne and Tralee winners among the most impressive on show.
