RACING NAVAN REPORT: DONNAS PALM advertised the “horses for courses” theory with a vengeance at Navan yesterday when he secured victory in the Grade Two Flyingbolt Novice Chase for his political masters.
Owned by the dozen members of the Grand Alliance Racing Club, including former taoiseach Brian Cowen, Donnas Palm made it five wins from five at Navan with a thrilling head defeat of Foildubh.
The high-class grey, who has now won 11 races from 28 starts, was welcomed back by some of his cross-party owners including ex-cabinet minister Noel Davern and former TDs GV Wright and Liam Cosgrave.
