Incredible 999-1 in-running winner as jockey stuns Limerick opposition on huge outsiderJockey James Conheady stunned the opposition with an incredible ride on a 999-1 in-running winner.
An Forghas, a huge outsider before the race started at 125-1, built up a huge lead in the closing bumper at Limerick.
Around 30 lengths clear of the field at halfway, the four-year-old looked sure to have used up too much energy.
Tailed off on his only prior start, An Forghas had his advantage cut back dramatically around six furlongs from the finish.
The pack appeared to have his measure, as he seemed tired on the heavy ground.
But the jockeys on the other six runners – and punters – were left stunned as the son of Shantaram picked up again.
An Forghas, who hit odds of 999-1 on Betfair, kept plugging away and went on to defeat his rivals by three and three-quarter lengths.
