Jack Kennedy produced a sensational recovery to win at Clonmel Races on Thursday afternoon.
Kennedy was on board the Gordon Elliott-trained Robin Des Mana when he almost fell to the ground after he jumped a fence. He managed to recover, taking several seconds to get back in position and went on to win by half a length at odds of 7/2.
Speaking to At The Races afterwards, he said: "I got in underneath it and it hit me up into the arse and shot me out of the saddle. I was a little bit embarrassed that I got thrown out of the saddle so I said I'd better try and stay on him. I was lucky the railing was there as I'd have been gone out of the race and he kept straight and that was a big help."
Well done Jack!
