Thinkitplanitdoit scored a rare racing win for Ireland's biggest classifieds website Done Deal, when landing the Killarney Towers Hotel Maiden Hurdle at Killarney today, for trainer Liz Doyle and jockey Sean Flanagan.
The son of Saffron Walden was involved in a four-way battle on the approach to the final flight and while Rio Lobo fell, Thinkitplanitdoit came out best of the remainder for a half length win over Ballyegan Hero
Afterwards Doyle revealed “he's a good advertisement for Done Deal as that's where he was bought.
“He is owned by the Anna Gannon Syndicate and Anna is a lady in her 80s who was in the betting shops in Dublin all her life. Her siblings came together and got a horse, from Done Deal, for her and they're having a great time, it's two from three for her now so all good!
“With a bit more jumping experience he'll be grand and while he is a very lazy sleepy horse, Sean gave him a beautiful ride; they went no gallop and he wound it up all the way up the straight.
“He'll go the novice route and Sean said he'd be better going the other way around, as he was jumping to his right the whole way.
“He's not 100% when the ground is too soft and is a real good ground horse.”
