The WELSH DRAGON SERIES has developed from the
3 year old grass championship race previously run at Tregaron. The 3yo grass championship was one of the
highlights of the meeting for the past few years. However in an attempt to create something new and different the 3
yo grass championship was succeeded by a 3 year old stakes race with a
completely new format and became ‘The Little Welsh Dragon’.
The first DDRAIG FACH GYMREIG/LITTLE WELSH DRAGON (for 3 year
olds) was run in 2004, since then it
has developed into a series of races for colts/geldings and fillies:
THE JUNIOR WELSH DRAGON for
2yo colts & geldings at the Treagron
August Festival Meeting
THE JUNIOR WELSH DRAGONESS for
2yo fillies at the Treagron August Festival Meeting
THE LITTLE WELSH DRAGON for 3yo colts &
geldings at the Treagron August Festival Meeting
THE LITTLE WELSH DRAGONESS for
3yo fillies at the Treagron August
Festival Meeting
THE SENIOR WELSH DRAGON for
4yo colts, geldings and fillies at the Tregaorn May Spring Meeting
NEW THE HOME DRAGON for 4yo cots,
geldings and fillies eligible for Senior Dragon in same ownership as when
