Flynn's Legend causes 50/1 upset at Killarney

Wed 19th Aug 2009, 19:19

Paul Flynn recorded his second big priced winner in two months when his Bideford Legend landed the Killarney Oaks Hotel Novice Chase at Killarney today.

Well ridden by Mark Darcy, the son of Flying Legend eventually got to the front on the run-in to defeat The Phantom Piper (which made several mistakes) by two and a half lengths.

Flynn was successful in July with 100/1 shot Tenormore at Bangor. The Longford based trainer was not present for today's win.
