In-form O'Brien sends out tenth May winner Trainer Joseph O’Brien has his string in excellent health at present and sent out his tenth winner this month when his Mischievous Max landed the concluding Glenpatrick Sport Horses INH Bumper at Down Royal, winning under the yard’s amateur jockey Tom Hamilton. The son of Dubai Destination and 8/11 favourite was made work for his win but did respond well for pressure to eventually score a four and a half lengths win over Winter Time. Afterwards Hamilton stated “he did it well and put his experience to good use. He was very professional and he kept galloping. For a stride or two I was short of a small bit of room turning in but he got through a gap and picked up and went away and did it nicely." Trainer O'Brien has already registered seven national hunt winners this new season to accompany three flat winners in the same period. By Tom Weekes, quotes from Michael Graham
