Duddy Distance Awards in INFC –
Dedicated long distance fancier Robin Duddy from Ballyclare has presented the most recent award to the INFC, introduced in 2017 the Duddy Extreme Distance Trophy was to be awarded for the furthest flying member in the Kings Cup Grand National. Something to aim for, regarding lofts in North Antrim, and further afield. Robin has also asked that for this new season 2020 if we ever get going, his old award The Robin Duddy Trophy would in the future go to the furthest flying member in the Penzance Young Bird Grand National. Previously it had been awarded as a 3 Bird Nomination – Best Average Sennen Cove Yearling and Penzance YB National. This award never really took off as planned, maybe the race entry was just not simple enough.
