The first rider in a six strong jump-off Butler set an unbeatable target of a clear round in 38.54 to clinch the victory.

Butler also secured his place at the World Breeding Championships at Lanaken by taking the overall victory in the league. Owned by Hannah Joyce, the mare was bred by Co. Limerick’s Ronnie Kelly and is by Tinaranas Inspector out of the Colin Diamond-sired dam Dreaming.
