Paul Nolan continues hot run with easy win of impressive Kiltealy Park
![Paul Nolan: is on course for his best tally of winners in over a decade](/_next/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fs3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com%2Fprod-media-racingpost%2Fprod%2Fimages%2F169_1008%2F0088359713f1-59874.jpg&w=3840&q=75)
Paul Nolan saddled his fourth winner in eight days when Kiltealy Park landed the 2m4f mares' handicap hurdle with a convincing performance under Sean Flanagan.
The Grade 1-winning County Wexford trainer enjoyed a double at Cork last Saturday with Palamon and Maxi Mac Gold and added another success when Jasmine De Cotte won at Kilbeggan on Friday.
The five-year-old Kiltealy Park travelled strongest before taking it up at the second-last and soon stretched ten lengths clear of Pana To Milan.
However, Nolan was out of luck with his two runners in the 3m handicap hurdle, as his 5-2 favourite Tranquil Sea managed only third and Western Zara pulled up.
The race was won by the Philip Rothwell-trained Plain Or Battered, who responded generously to the urgings of his rider Conor Owens to get back up on the run-in to beat Cloudy Fountain by three-quarters of a length. It was a fifth victory for the 7lb claimer.
Deal done
Dreal Deal, a high-profile horse when with his former trainer Ronan McNally, beat the 10-11 favourite Magic Tricks in the 2m novice chase. It was his second success since joining John McConnell.
