Hughes hits jackpot with 70/1 Thurles treble
Having his first run since being pulled up on the track last February, Rick landed the Rock Of Cashel Hurdle in battling style from Aintree Grand National-bound Oscar Time and disappointing favourite Sivota.
In front before the third last, Rick was soon chased by the Martin Lynch-trained Paddy Power winner Oscar Time, carrying the colours of Robert Waley-Cohen for the first time and ridden by his son Sam, who will ride the gelding in the John Smiths Grand National net April.
