Forest gives Murtagh and O'Brien doubles

Sun 25th Apr 2010, 17:34

Aidan O'Brien and Johnny Murtagh both completed doubles when Rain Forest ran out a cosy winner of the Dunderry Maiden at Navan.

The once-raced son of Sadler's Wells tracked the leaders before hitting the front with under two furlongs to race.

He stayed on strongly to record a two-and-a-half length win over Minsky Mine

O'Brien had earlier struck with the Colm O'Donoghue ridden So Stylish in the two-year-old maiden while Murtagh had team up with Michael Halford when Airspace took the older sprint maiden.
