THERE were no locally-trained winners at Downpatrick last Sunday but Co Meath’s Ian Donoghue, who saddled the winner of the Randox Ulster National, Dunboyne, spent a lot of time working in Co Down in the East Down and then the Co Down hunt kennels.

Also, when consigned to the Tattersalls Cheltenham November Sale in 2020 by Sean Doyle following his win in a Tattersalls maiden the previous month, the 2015 Yeats gelding was purchased on behalf of present owner Stephen O’Connor by Kevin Ross Bloodstock.
