TIPPERARY’S Shane Breen drove away in a brand new Mercedes Benz after he scored a hard-fought win in Friday night’s four-star 1.50m Rabobank Prize at Geesteren in The Netherlands.

Riding Laith (Lord Z x Weinberg), a relatively new mount to his top string, owned by Team Z7 and previously campaigned by Marion Hughes, Breen was the fastest of a massive 15-horse jump-off in a time of 31.23 seconds.
