It\u2019s Bobsled Time has become the third-longest priced winner in Irish racing history.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The three-year-old gelding romped home in Monday\u2019s Irish Stallion Farms EBF Academy Hurdle at Naas, having set off as 250-1 rank outsider.<\/p>\n

The horse trained by Richard Morrissey from County Waterford had given no hint of what was to come after performing poorly in its first two outings.<\/p>\n

It was beaten by 50 lengths on its debut run in October.<\/p>\n

It fared even worse last month finishing 61 lengths behind the winner.<\/p>\n

Racing To A New Irish Record<\/h2>\n

Under Cork jockey Michael Keneally, It\u2019s Bobsled Time was the backmarker with six furlongs to go.<\/p>\n

As the 2m 1f 40y race entered the final turn, the pair had made some small progress on the inside rail but still seemed way out of contention.<\/p>\n

With two furlongs to go the field began to spread and It\u2019s Bobsled Time put on the afterburners.<\/p>\n

With a furlong remaining it hit the front and sprinted home to win the Academy Hurdles comfortably by two-and-a-quarter lengths.<\/p>\n
