LION NA BEARNAI gave trainer Thomas Gibney and jockey Andrew Thornton the biggest success of their careers when he sprung a big shock in the Irish National on Monday.
The 33-1 winner landed the Grade 2 Ten Up Novices' Chase at 50-1 last time out when he beat Four Commanders but proved that victory to be no fluke when he powered clear of Out Now after the last to score by four and a half lengths.

BACKERS of Akeed Mofeed, who was a mover for the Qipco 2,000 Guineas last week, were dealt a blow on Monday when trainer John Oxx revealed he will miss the race.
The colt was as short as 9-1 with Coral for the opening Classic of the season and was Tom Segal's Pricewise selection but having been found slightly lame he will not be heading to Newmarket.
Speaking on Monday morning, Oxx said: "Akeed Mofeed took a lame step yesterday and is going to have to have an easy week.
