WITH just two rounds ahead of the final at The Irish Breeders Classic, the Mervue Equine Leinster League went down to the wire at Mullingar last weekend.

In the 1.35m, 58 combinations went to post and, of those, 13 delivered double clears. Peter Smyth and Cruising Lux claimed the win when they delivered a double clear in 29.06 seconds.
