CHAMPION jumps trainer Willie Mullins has made a habit of plundering big staying prizes on the flat in recent years, and Digeanta added to the Closutton maestro’s tally by taking the Tote Irish Cesarewitch.

The eight-year-old gelding, owned in partnership by Toronto doctor Peter Moran and locally-based Michael McDonnell’s Colland Sand & Gravel company, made virtually all under Billy Lee to provide Mullins with his second win in this two-mile test, six years after the victory of Dani California.
