Ardlethan Picnic Races a great Dale out!
Andrew Dale and Dylan Dean scoop top gongs at races
IT was the Dylan Dean and Andrew Dale show at the Ardlethan Picnic Races at Narrandera last weekend.
Dylan and Andrew combined for three winners, including their triumph in the Ardlethan Picnic Cup (1600m) with Copperfield ($2.10), who lugged 75.5kg to victory.
The pair's other winners were Vonk ($4) in the 1000m Open Trophy Race and Can Do Canto ($2.50) in the 1200m Class 3 Trophy Race.
In a statement on their social media page Dale said -
“ADR enjoyed a dominant day at Narrandera, securing three winners - a Narrandera treble!” ADR said.
“Vonk (Race 1) kicked the day off in style with a strong win, followed by Can Do Canto in Race 3 who made it back-to-back victories. Copperfield then added more silverware to his CV taking out the Ardlethan Cup (1600m).
“It was a huge day for the stable with 16 runners in action across three different venues, resulting in three 2nd place finishes, four 3rds and three 4ths.
The Samara Johnson Memorial Trophy is awarded every year to the winning jockey of our Nutrien Ag Solutions Picnic Cup. Together with her family we celebrate Samara’s life and her passion for racing. Congratulations to jockey Dylan Dean who rode one of Andrew Dale Racing horses Copperfield to victory this year. Narrandera Race Club Inc
“The three victories takes the stable to 39 for 2024/25, fast approaching another 50 win season. Congratulations to everyone involved.”
