SEAN Flanagan completed a Galway double on Saturday where the rider combined with trainers Eric McNamara and his principal supporter Barry Connell for wins.

Flanagan began by steering the McNamara-trained L’Evangeliste (8/15 favourite) to win the extended two-mile Connolly’s Red Mulls EBF Auction Maiden Hurdle for the Preachers Syndicate. The heavily-backed son of Pastorius made all the running to score by eight lengths from Mullaghgloss.
