Leaving Cert student John Gleeson gave JP McManus his 70th Cheltenham Festival winner in what was the young jockey's first ever ride at the meeting on Wednesday.
The 18-year-old steered A Dream To Share to victory in the Champion Bumper for 85-year-old Waterford trainer John Kiely after taking the week off school to head to the Cotswolds.
The horse was bred by John's father and racing broadcaster Brian and mother Claire, who sold him to McManus after his win at the Dublin Racing Festival in February.
