Jimmy Two Times poised for first win

Jimmy Two Times, a horse who has caught the eye on a couple of occasions, can enjoy a first success in the GAA Race Day 19th August Maiden Hurdle at Sligo tonight.

Brian Hamilton’s charge first hinted at possessing real ability when staying on to claim fifth spot behind Shantou Ed at Fairyhouse in February.

Then, at Gowran Park in March, despite going of an unconsidered 20-1 shot, he stepped up on that effort. Again it was a case of his best work coming at the business end, as the selection ran on late to claim second to hot pot, Blow The Doors Off.
