Holly back on top with Burnswood

Wed 10th Nov 2010, 15:03

Injury ravaged rider Joe Holly had his first winner in over two years when Burnswood caused a 20/1 surprise in the Tipper Road Handicap Hurdle at Naas.

The ex-Charlie Egerton-trained son of Monsun, came home best between horses on the run-in to get up and beat With Speed (trained short in-running).

Winning trainer John Supple, who also led the seven-year-old up, said: "He has been frustrating as he has always had plenty of ability. It's nice to get his head in front and hopefully that will give him a bit of confidence.

"Given his size hopefully he'll go on and do a job over fences."
