Irish Performances Of The Week

In a shortened week in Ireland featuring reduced meetings, sluggish tracks, and all venues closed since Friday, the standout event was the Eric Browne Kingdom Derby Final at Tralee. The Dowling and Buckley kennels each contributed half of the runners, and it was the green and white county that emerged victorious, led by Road Exile with an impressive 28.02 win.

On the same night, Shelbourne hosted the semi-finals of the Christmas Oaks, with Rathdown Molly emerging as the quicker of the two winners.
