POWERFUL Nation (11/4) impressed when running out a comfortable winner of the most valuable contest on Dundalk’s eight-race card, the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Race.

Owned by the Kevin Sean Tommy Walsh Partnership, the 100-rated colt had been touched off in listed company, when last seen in early July and was travelling all over the leaders from early in the straight, before being pushed out to beat Amazing Athena by a length and a half.
