Billy Twomey brought one of the best Millstreet International Horse Shows in recent years to a superb conclusion this afternoon by taking the honours in the feature event, the €50,000 Millstreet International Grand Prix. Last to go in the ten horse jump-off, Twomey knew that he had to go clear and faster than the time of 50.24 set by Peter Moloney and Ribanbelle Tame (Ephebe for Ever x Quidam de Reve. A record crowd held their breath as Twomey navigated the Mark McGowan designed course with ease to win the €16,500 first prize with Joe Flynn’s traditionally Irish-bred Ardcolum Duke (Gypsy Duke x Clover Hill).
