MANY congratulations to Scott Kenny, a former member of the North Tipperary and Ormond Branch of the Irish Pony Club, who recorded his first win in a point-to-point at the Ormond Foxhounds’ meeting in Ballingarry last Saturday.

The 19-year-old’s three-and-a-half-length success came in the four-runner open race on the French-bred, odds-on favourite In Excelsis Deo. The eight-year-old Saddex gelding is owned and trained by Enda Bolger, for whom Scott mainly works while also helping out at home where his father Graham holds a licence to train.
