Patrick McGettigan rode Pat McKenna’s Hezahunk to a 50/1 surprise victory at Dundalk yesterday.
After the race, Ballyare jockey McGettigan gave his analysis of the race:
“He jumped very well. I had an okay draw in six, but around here you have to be sharp away to get into the position you want.
He took me everywhere and I couldn’t believe how well I was going turning in.
He’s just a horse you have to keep very sweet and thank God it worked out well today”.
Trained by Patrick J McKenna, this was Hezahunk’s second career success with the other one coming in a C&D claimer last September.
