Are You Busy delights Sweeney in Thurles Are You Busy was a welcome winner for Rodger Sweeney in the Holycross Maiden Hurdle at Thurles. The well backed 9/2 chance raced in rear of mid-division and made eye-catching headway after three out under Aidan Kelly. She hit the front approaching the straight and kept on well to fend off a staying-on Stretchemout (5/1) by a neck. Market-springer Set My Love Free (28/1 - 14/1) gave her backers a place reward in third. Sweeney said: "That was needed! She was nearly entitled to do that on her form and she is a grand little mare and is a good little jumper. "I'm quiet enough with just six or seven horses to run and she will tip away on good ground during the summer." Additional reporting by Tom Weekes
