Captain powers home for Eddie Lynam

Eddie Lynam completed a double with Mr.Good Guy and Captain Power in Fairyhouse last night.

The victory of 80-rated Captain Power, in the famous colours of Mrs Sabina Power, worn by such stars as Sole Power and Slade Power, proved particularly sweet for the County Meath trainer.

Pipped in Naas last time, Captain Power came through inside the final furlong under stable apprentice Robbie Downey to beat stable-companion Future Icon by a length and three-quarters, prompting Lynam to state: “He deserved to win a little race. He gives his best every time and was unlucky in Naas, when he got hit across the snout by a whip.
