The ex-Willie Mullins trained Nambour made a winning start for his new trainer Mouse Morris, on chase debut, at Galway today landing the W.B. Gavin & Co. EBF Beginners Chase under jockey Mark Enright.

Trainer Morris was one of the beneficiaries from the recent Gigginstown/Willie Mullins split and Nambour was Morris' first runner from the batch.

Today Nambour made all for a four lengths win over 5/4f Free Expression

Afterwards Morris stated “his jumping was very good for a first-timer and he appreciated the trip.”
