The Racing Post is sponsoring the Leading Trainer Award for a third year in 2008, and this year should be as exciting as ever with trainers representing Great Britain, Ireland and France aiming for the prize. For the third time in four years, Paul Nicholls was leading trainer in 2007. He hit the bullseye courtesy of Kauto Star, Denman, Andreas and Taranis. Nicky Henderson, Alan King, Philip Hobbs, Jonjo O’Neill, David Pipe and Paul Nicholls are among those to be respected and will be fighting to finish The Festival 2008 as the most successful trainer, while the challenge from Ireland is always strong. The Racing Post Leading Trainer Award will be decided on the number of winners trained over the four days. If there is a tie it will go down to the number of second places. If there is still a tie, the number of third places will be taken into account and the award will be shared if there remains a tie after that.
