Barry Cash partnered his second winner in two days when picking up the winning spare ride (the second winning spare ride from Davy Russell's intended mounts) on Magnetic Force in the www.tramore-racecourse.com Handicap Hurdle at Tramore today.

Cash was hard at work on the son of Verglas coming down the hill but forced the gelding to the front before the final flight before staying on well to defeat Tough Talkin Man.

Afterwards winning trainer Robbie Hennessy said “that was a good 'spare' for Barry, who does a lot of schooling for us at home so there was no question about putting him up.

“Magnetic Force had been working with Rubi Light recently and was fairly fit coming here today!

He just abut got away with the ground though as the faster the ground is, the better he is. We'll tip away with him for the summer now.”

Regarding stable star Rubi Light, Hennessy said “he'll run in the Guinness Gold Cup at Punchestown and hopefully we'll get plenty of rain this week. There is rain forecast so hopefully it will come.”
