An Toileanach pushes the boat out

Thu 23rd Apr 2009, 20:34

The concluding event at Tipperary tonight, the p2p.ie (C&G) Point to Point Bumper saw An Toileanach spring a 33/1 upset to win for Tallow trainer Joe O'Keeffe.

The son of Turtle Island proved three lengths too strong for well backed runner-up Ikidunot with Aughnacurraveel finishing well from off the pace in third.

Afterwards O'Keeffe said "An Toileanach jumps, gallops, stays and is a really sweet horse."

Winning rider Richie Harding, a dual Cheltenham Festival winning jockey, was recording his fourth racecourse win of the season, to add to 18 in point to points wins.
