An 85-year-old trainer and an 18-year-old jockey stole the show on day two of the Cheltenham Festival as the aptly named A Dream To Share, sporting the famous green and gold silks of JP McManus, stormed to victory in the finale, the Weatherbys Champion Bumper.
It was a first Festival success for veteran Dungarvan trainer John Kiely who himself was still riding out until covid made its unwelcome presence felt.
