Well backed McManus winner lands finale The J.P. McManus owned, Tony Martin trained White Arm was the well backed winner of the concluding Simonstown Handicap Chase at Navan today, winning under jockey Mark Walsh. The 13/8 favourite, backed from 5/2 this morning, raced with the pace and in the end stayed on well for a comfortable win over Milan Flyer. “He stays and he likes the ground,” said Martin. “He ran a blinder at Fairyhouse — it was a great run. It wasn't the best race today and there was only a small turn out but he can do no more than he did. “He jumped well and that seems to be his job — that ground and trip.” By Tom Weekes, quotes from Gary Carson
