It isn’t every day that an amateur jockey commands the racing headlines but Rob James from Killanne had a most enjoyable day at Limerick races today (Monday) where he recorded a double success.
James got off to a flying success aboard No Cure (5/1) for Kiltealy owner and trainer Gearoid O’Loughlin in the maiden hurdle before landing the Listed handicap hurdle race on Its Bilbo (9/2) for Waterford trainer Henry de Bromhead.
Jordan Gainford had his fourth winner in as many days. He won at Down Royal on Friday, had a victory each day on Saturday and Sunday at Limerick, and today (Monday) he won for Gordon Elliott on Lynches Knock (6/1) in a hurdle race at Leopardstown.
