Newmill rolls back the years

THE John Murphy-trained Newmill rekindled memories of the past when landing the Grade 2 Kinloch Brae Chase at Thurles yesterday.

Four years earlier the veteran also won this race, as a prelude to his greatest day when subsequently taking the Queen Mother Two Mile Champion Chase at Cheltenham.

Eddie Power dropped Newmill out at the back for much of the trip, but then made a really bold move on the approach to the sixth from home.
