Talbot does the business in Lisbon
Kildare native Talbot helped the Irish team to equal third place in Friday’s Division 2 nations cup and was confident he would be in the shake-up in yesterday’s feature when he saw the “galloping track”.
“I’m delighted with the horse, he’s been going well all week. He had a clear in the first round of the nations cup here on Friday and I was disappointed to have two down in my second round. It was his first time under floodlights, and that may have had something to do with it,” said Talbot, who moved to Switzerland in 1988 when aged 17.
