Patience pays off with Skeheenarinky
Sean O'Brien saddled his first winner since last November when Skeheenarinky caused a 16/1 surprise in the Ingoldsby (Q.R.) Handicap Steeplechase under Ciaran Fennessy at Punchestown.
The ten-year-old son of Oscar, without success in fifteen previous starts, led just after the third last and he kept up the gallop to account for Bonoman by two and a half lengths.
O'Brien was leading up his winner, which he also owns and Fennessy remarked: "That's my fourth winner on the track and I've had 44 in point-to-points. Sean was hopeful that the first-time blinkers would make a difference to this fellow."
