Swail wraps up Grand Prix League in style

CONOR SWAIL won the Boswell Grand Prix League on a fitting note yesterday when victorious in the penultimate round at Iverk Show, Piltown, Co Kilkenny.

The Dublin-based Co Down rider had a sizeable league lead going into yesterday’s competition and, while mathematically he could be caught, he left no doubt as to his title claim, beating off a determined challenge when last to go on Knightfield Equestrian’s Conduct to take victory.

The win left him on 121 points, an unbeatable 31 more than Francis Connors, with Robert Splaine one point further adrift.
