Bishop digs deep to claim National

THE paddypower.com Grand National at Cork yesterday produced a terrific local victory with the Tom Nagle trained The Bishop Looney digging deep to beat Another Palm.

Tullintain was in front when parting company with Philip Enright four out, leaving Another Palm in the lead.

For most of the straight Another Palm looked the most likely winner, but Tom Doyle powered The Bishop Looney into contention heading to the final fence.
