Nibras Rainbow Gains Deserved Leopardstown Success The Paul Flynn-trained Nibras Rainbow got his head in front after finishing second and third already at Leopardstown through the summer. Ridden by Leigh Roche, he was prominent throughout and had a good battle with the Peter Fahey-trained Alto Sax in the last furlong, just prevailing to score by a neck. Speaking after the race, trainer Paul Flynn said: "It probably suited him, the stiffer mile here. I know he's won in Killarney but he's been so lucky with the draws down there. I think if he got a bad draw there in Killarney he'd find it hard. He doesn't like being boxed in. He's in great old heart." Quotes from John O'Riordan
