Gervais completes double under kid-glove treatment

Trainer John Kiely earned the plaudits at Cork yesterday evening after recording a near 20-1 double courtesy of Saint Gervais and Kilbarry Beauty.

Gervais completes double under kid-glove treatment

Jockey Andrew McNamara applied the kid-glove treatment to perfection to land the featured Follow Us On Twitter Handicap Hurdle aboard 15-8 favourite Saint Gervais. A winner on good to firm ground at Clonmel on his previous outing, the seven-year-old faced very different conditions on this occasion but he coped perfectly well with them.

Given a very patient ride, he was eased into contention up the homestraight and found plenty to repel the very late challenge of Anshan Dreams.
