Meade/Flood complete Fairyhouse double

Sat 28th Nov 2009, 13:07

Paddy Flood and Noel Meade recorded an opening card double after they landed the Ryans Cleaning Event Specialists Hurdle with Donnas Palm

Fog again resulted in largely impaired viewing of the race although Donna’s Palm who appeared to dispute lead from three out sprinted clear of Mourad at the last hurdle for a three length win.

A delighted Meade said afterwards: “There’s not a whole lot between this lad and my other Grade 1 horse’s. We just sneaked this lad into the race today on prize money.”

“That wasn’t a bad performance but because of his set-back last year I didn’t want to over challenge him.”

“We will wait until Leopardstown at Christmas and see what happens but he’s a horse going the right way.”
