LOL, some of the lads did alright TBF.
Jaysus, if number 35 had studs or spikes on he might have done it.

Jaysus, big jump for him and NR.

 

[BlackpoolTerrier]

Wow, he ran a blinder in the Copenhagen half but I thought he was targeting Valencia. 2:07 is getting serious - brilliant to see it.
He now has the NRs for the half and the full. This should put him on the list for some of the big races in 2026.

The Youghal singlet an’ all on him. Outstanding

Winner by over 2 mins 30. The lads who came in 2nd and 3rd are 2:06 and 2:07 men - so maybe it was a tough course, which makes his score even better.
