Lounaos stars at Leopardstown
Eoin Griffin’s Lounaos held off the determined challenge of Al Eile to claim the Leopardstown November Premier Handicap in the hands of Pat Smullen.
Settled in mid-division behind a strong pace set by the Willie Supple-ridden Warrens Castle, Smullen made his bid for home on the turn into the straight and looked to have the race sewn up when the 8-1 chance shot five lengths clear.
