Knockout competition

The popular knockout competition was introduced in 2000.

The draw is made early in the year and all races are run during spring and summer under handicap conditions. Any mutually agreed race can be run for the earlier rounds but the final is held on the league final day.

The champion is awarded with an engraved shield on the presentation day.
