High profile Aintree festival unlucky-loser Scheu Time bounced back to form with a third career win in the E16,000 Low Low Handicap Hurdle at Cork today, scoring for trainer James Nash and jockey Kevin Brouder.

Scheu Time was the leader when falling at the final flight at the 2018 Aintree festival, in the race which followed Tiger Roll's Grand National, and today the son of Arakan ended a 10 race losing run when comfortably beating runner-up Goodbye Someday

Winning jockey Brouder stated "we went a good even gallop the whole way and it rode a very good race.

"After his fall at Aintree I'd say he picked up a bit of an injury and hadn't ran well since. At Punchestown he came back from a break and finished second and ran well and that put him right for today.

"That's James' (Nash) second winner in the last week and they are running well."
