O'Neill puts end to nightmare run
|
O'Neill was joined by McCoy early last year
|
Trainer Jonjo O'Neill celebrated his first winner for 73 days when Specular won at Huntingdon on Thursday.
Champion jockey Tony McCoy guided home the 9-4 shot to give O'Neill a massive boost less than three weeks before the Cheltenham Festival.
A virus hit O'Neill's yard before Christmas and it was feared he would have few runners at the Festival.
But McCoy said: "The trainer feels that they're coming right and he has been justified with the horse winning."
