Narima wins Navan opener The opening Kilberry Maiden Hurdle at Navan today went to the Mervyn Torrens trained Narima, which justified strong market support to win under Mike Darcy. Narima made virtually all, and despite making a mistake at the final flight, stayed on well to comfortably hold runner-up Priors Gold. Afterwards Torrens stated “Narima never jumped a hurdle today and was ‘lairy’ in front. She is a big light filly and that’ll do her for the season - she’ll get some spring grass now. Hopefully she’ll make a nice mare next year – she wasn’t right at Leopardstown two runs ago.” Thomas Weekes
