Scoop News reporting summary

The text below was supplied by the Scoop Newsroom app. Third-party reporting is attributed in the source panel.

The IRA, the Catholic paramilitary group, raised funds for their campaign through bank and post office robberies, which provokes the question: Jon Wertheim: What would the IRA want with a horse? Before he died, Fitzgerald opened up to Millar, recalling what happened. All this time later, the horse was never found, no one's been arrested, and one of sport's great unsolved mysteries has never moved beyond cold case status.
