Wexford trio light-up Limerick
Jim Mernagh, Paul Nolan and Michael Doran had a day to remember when they completed a 62/1 double as Aura About You added to their earlier success with Golden Sunbird in the Grade 3 I.T.B.A Fillies Scheme European Breeders Fund Dawn Run Mares Novice Steeplechase at Limerick.
Doran attacked on the Supreme Leader eight-year-old down the straight as Gentle Alice made her bid for glory from the scrubbed along odds-on shot For Bill Aura About You went on to prevail by three lengths from For Bill with Gentle Alice tiring in the latter stages to finish seven lengths back in third.
James Nolan, brother of the winning trainer Paul, said: "That was a great ride from Michael. The slow pace probably didn't suit us but it wouldn't have suited For Bill either. She jumps well and she is coming into herself now in the spring and she'll go for the mares chase at Fairyhouse at Easter."
