Consistent Jimmy gets his reward

The finale at Punchestown, the five-runner Racing At Punchestown Tomorrow (Pro/Am) INH Flat Race saw third choice in the market, Jimmy Breekie (7/2), grab the limelight for the Crawford brothers, Stuart and Ben.

Backed in from 9/2, Jimmy Breekie certainly wasn't without his supporters, and he chased his fellow Northern Irish contender, Triolet in second place.

The consistent Alkaadhem gelding was ridden to challenge a furlong and a half out and he disputed over a furlong out.

Jimmy Breekie asserted in the final hundred yards, keeping on well in the closing stages to see off Triolet by a length and a half. High Tail It stayed on all too late and he just failed to get to Triolet by a short head.

Favourite The Comediologist was very one-paced in the straight, and he ended up seven lengths back in fourth.
