Land Rover graduate wins Galway Plate for JP McManus
02/08/2012
Land Rover Sale graduate Bob Lingo took glory in the Galway Plate for owner JP McManus.
Trained by Tom Mullins, who has enjoyed great success this year with Land Rover Sale Grade 1 winner Alderwood for McManus as well as taking this year’s €100,000 Goffs Land Rover Bumper, Bob Lingo worked his way into contention at the right time and ran on strongly to record a 5 length victory over Casey Top to land the Festival feature.
Bob Lingo, a ten year old son of Bob's Return, was purchased by Tom Mullins for €27,000 at the 2006 Land Rover Sale where he was consigned by Brandyhill Stud.
