Dash’s strategy for the “wild” winner Night On Earth involves embracing a little bit of silliness.

The Ian Williams-trained six-year-old showed impressive speed in the race, breaking out of the stalls and quickly making his way to the stands’ rail. The horse, Night On Earth, maintained a strong lead throughout the race, ultimately winning by a length and a quarter. His trainer, Ian Williams, expressed satisfaction with the horse’s performance, highlighting his early pace and ability to cope with the course at Epsom.

Night On Earth had faced a series of winless starts before finding success under Williams, particularly excelling on the all-weather tracks in the winter. The trainer credited the improvement to the efforts of Pat Morris and the daily work of rider Robbie. In another race, a five-year-old horse named Ziggy, trained by Harry Eustace, delivered an impressive performance, securing the runner-up spot behind Night On Earth.

Trainer Jarvis commended the work of Harry Eustace, noting the significant margin of victory. Another notable performance came from a horse under the care of Gary Moore, whose son Jamie had dedicated significant effort to rehabilitating the horse from an injury. Winning trainer Ed Walker also expressed surprise at the strong showing of his horse in the race, emphasizing the horse’s appearance and consistent training.

Overall, the races featured strong performances and notable achievements from the horses and their trainers, demonstrating their dedication and skill in preparing for and competing in the competitions.
