Watch: Hugh Morgan's remarkable ride on Young Dev after losing his irons at the second fence at Navan

The performance in the Racing Again March 6th Handicap Chase was so impressive that Ruby Walsh even rated it as "110 out of 10" during commentary on Racing TV!

Young Dev triumphed at 17/2 ahead of Se Mo Laoch (6/1) and Dubai Devils (7/2).

Just to successfully complete the course would have been a tremendous feat, but miraculously, Morgan managed to get his mount into contention and drove him out on the run-in to secure the most remarkable of wins by three-quarters of a length from Se Mo Laoch.

Explaining what had happened, Morgan said: “My right stirrup broke after the first and I kicked it out. I’m grand at the minute, but I’d say I’ll be sore in the morning!

“The horse had run plenty of times, so I said I might as well keep going. It took a bit of getting used to going down to the fences without them (irons) and I just left him to sort himself out and gave him a squeeze.

“It was great – it was something new anyway! It’s my first ride for Denis, so it’s very important to get a win.”
