The table is dominated by three major stakes – though there are some surprises.
Roxholme Magic proved herself that fastest extreme distance runner in the British Isles when landing the Harolds Cross Marathon.
Jaytee Samurai’s victory in the Comerford Cakes Stake gave him the edge at Shelbourne Park. Senans Forever gets the Tralee nod after his fastest semi win in the Kingdom Puppy Derby.
Incredibly we even had two ‘fastest time of year’ for Drumbo’s 550 and 575 yards with Ballymac Zoe and puppy Mervin My Friend.
A nod to both sets of connections – and the groundsman
