Nine-year-old North Of Nashville (9/1) bridged an almost three-year gap between Wexford wins today, landing her second career success for trainer Colin Bowe in the Treo Eile Handicap Chase.

Carrying the colours of Milestone Bloodstock Limited, North Of Nashville’s previous success came at today’s course in September 2023 and today under Ricky Doyle, raced prominently and maintained her gallop, to score by nine lengths from early leader Ceroc .

Bowe’s assistant Brendan Walsh said “North Of Nashville was a really good winner here a few years ago, she likes it down here and had a nice run the last day over a shorter trip.

“The horses seem to be in good order and that was a very good display. She went a right good gallop, kept jumping and stayed strongly at the end.

“We’ve no fancy plans, we’re just delighted to get another day out of her. She always threatened a lot and hasn’t really delivered but that’s two days out of her now so we’re happy enough.”
