Three for Paul Carberry on Turnonthegas © Photo Healy Racing
Paul Carberry notched a quick hat-trick at Ballinrobe when Turnonthegas ran out an easy winner of the first division of the two-and-a-half mile handicap hurdle.
The 10/1 shot was produced under a typically confident ride turning for home and hit the front before the final flight.
John Carr 's charge soon scooted clear and was eased to the line to record a comprehensive seven-and-a-half length victory over Moving On
It was the first winner since last August for Carr and the Maynooth handler said afterwards:-
"My horses are starting to run well again. This fella ran well the last day, although the ground was a bit too quick.
"He's in again at Kilbeggan on Friday and will probably run."
Carberry had landed the previous contest on Fairymount Lord and had also struck in the opener with Six Stone Ned
