What an exciting weekend to bring a long and busy season to a fitting end. Kruzhlinin and Longhouse Music provided the highlights.

The joint-champions have thrilled the crowds in a fabulous title-battle, fought out to the end, with both horses pushed to the maximum in endurance as well as ability to achieve 13 wins each.
