Lawrie Smith has claimed his fourth Edinburgh Cup win, surpassing Graham Bailey's three titles and, placing him within the prestigious group of most wins along with Tony O'Gorman, Poul-Richard Høj-Jensen and Rory Bowman.
The final day of the 76th Edinburgh Cup was a true celebration of the annual British Dragon National Championship but sadly delivered no racing. Race six was unable to take place due to insufficient wind, so on count back Lawrie claimed the win over Grant Gordon GBR 833, on equal points.
