The J.P. McManus owned, Joseph O’Brien trained Let’s Twist Again (9/1) gained an overdue maiden win at Navan today when landing the Sequence Events Handicap Hurdle under Mark Walsh.
The son of Galileo failed to win in 14 runs during the past 15 months and today looked booked for second spot, having surrendered his lead before the final flight. However he rallied gamely on the run-in to peg back Wee Small Hourse close home, for a half length win.
Walsh later stated “I got to the front too soon and he was wandering around a bit. I’d something to aim at going to the last and he’s a real out and out stayer. He’s been knocking on the door and deserved that.”
