Double trouble for Twomey

SHOW jumper Billy Twomey looked to be motoring in the €150,000 grand prix at the Audi Masters in Brussels, Belgium, yesterday until an unexpected two refusals with Je t’Aime Flamenco at the double put the brakes on his effort.

The Corkman and Sue Davies stallion were among 45 starters bidding for the top prize Audi A5 car and gave no indication of what was to come when joining nine rivals in the jump-off.

Twomey, however, put the blame squarely on himself.
