Sweet jumping Broadstone gives Gilligan biggest success
The 16-1 shot produced a fine exhibition of jumping and staying power, after Danny Howard had taken him the front with over a circuit to cover. The winner did get in close to the third last - the second last was omitted - but a quite brilliant leap at the final fence sealed a decisive success.
Said 29 year-old Gilligan: “I have 12 horses and he is my only decent one, I could do with a few more. I would love to take him to Cheltenham in November.”
