Say Again gives Nolan biggest win of his career in front of a record crowd

POPULAR Wexford handler Paul Nolan enjoyed far and away his biggest success to date when Say Again produced a smooth performance to take the Guinness Galway Hurdle at Ballybrit yesterday, before an all-time record crowd of 38,882.

The six-year-old was partnered with supreme confidence by John Cullen, who had been threatening to break into the elite of National Hunt jockeys in this country.

An elated Nolan was asked, in the winner’s enclosure, by Colm Murray if he would stay on to do a live slot on Six One News on RTE 1, to which he replied: “I’ll stay for three weeks!”
