Doctor Grace beats more patiently-ridden rivals Doctor Grace (16s into 11/1 before the off) recorded the fifth win of her career in the Paddy Woods Memorial Apprentice Handicap over at mile and a-half at Roscommon.  The Buratino mare was racing in second under Gabriella Hill when carried wide on the bend away from the stands. Soon in front, she was not to be headed from that point and stayed on well to beat Makaiah by two and a-half lengths. Winning trainer Ado McGuiness said "It was a bit of a surprise. She’s 12lb higher on the grass and I thought the handicapper had her rightly snookered. “She’d been running consistently well for us at Dundalk during the winter and she’s actually going home tomorrow for a break. “I’m delighted for Colm (McCourt) and the boys in the Dundalk Racing Club, they are with me a long time. They are with me since Michael (Halford) finished. Additional reporting by Gary Carson
