Robyn Donaghue-Leahy partnered her fifth winner of the season when landing the GAIN The Advantage Series (Ladies) Handicap on Not Just Any Eagle
The Cobh native had been successful on Pat Flynn's five-year-old at Cork in May and brought him from off the pace to lead early in straight. From there the Free Eagle gelding kept on well to see off Scatchwah by a length and a quarter.
Flynn said: "He was in savage form, I really fancied him today although I didn't know whether they'd go fast or slow, so everything had to go right for him. They went fast but Robyn was clever enough to take her time.
"At Down Royal the last day, Robyn's foot came out of an iron when she thought he'd have won but he won today instead. He is a nice horse and hopefully will win again."
