Breen gains on Swain after Grand Prix win

SHANE BREEN narrowed the gap on IJM TimberFrame League leader Conor Swail yesterday with victory in the Cahir Grand Prix.

Breen had two in the jump-off after seven made it past Alan Wade’s first-round track. He seemed to have a tough task, after Francis Connors set a seemingly unbeatable time of 36.80 seconds with Noel C Duggan’s Millstreet Miss. However, Breen, on World Cruise, managed to cut the target time by 0.15 of a second.

He now stands on 105 points in the league, just 12 adrift of Swail.
