Duddingston,
represented by what was probably the strongest side in terms of
handicaps in the event’s history, retained the Dispatch Trophy as the
124th edition concluded with the gorse at the Braids having lost its
colour but proving threatening nonetheless.
Matching
Mortonhall’s feat in 2018 and 2019, Duddingston made it back-to-back
triumphs as newcomers in the historic team tournament as this year’s
Edinburgh Leisure-run event was completed on Saturday after being
disrupted by bad weather in May.
The
morning semi-finals produced wins for Duddingston and six-time winners
Silverknowes over Heriot’s FP and Riccarton respectively before the
holders came out on top in the afternoon’s trophy decider.
