SIR DAVID PROSSER TROPHY TO BE AWARDED TO MOST SUCCESSFUL EPSOM TRAINER
The Sir David Prosser Trophy celebrates the achievements of the most successful Epsom-based trainer from the 2022 racing season. The trophy was named in Sir David Prosser’s honour on his retirement from the non-executive board of Epsom Downs in 2013. Sir David made an enormous contribution to the development of the racecourse over many years and remained a loyal supporter of Epsom Downs and the local training community until his passing in March 2020. Adam West leads the way with 24 winners so far and Michael Attwater is his closest pursuer in second place with 13 winners. Brett Johnson is not far behind on 11 winners, with Jim Boyle on 10 and Simon Dow and Pat Phelan each with 8 winners. Standings as of 26th July 2022. Trainer
