246/1 Roscommon treble for Cooper
Three up for Cooper

Bryan Cooper proved unstoppable at Roscommon, after Gangster s impressive win in race four. The County Kerry jockey fired in the next two winners as well, at combined odds of 246/1, completed on Colin Bowe's Phangio (at least 16s this morning into 10s) in the Castlerea Handicap Hurdle.
After donning the silks of his employer, Gigginstown House Stud, on Gangster (Willie Mullins), and Cape Glory (Gordon Elliott), Cooper here sported the colours of Matthew Duffy and his daughter Elizabeth, on the chestnut that the Hacketstown family also bred.
Formerly with Philip Rothwell, but since victorious 'between the flags,' since transferring across to Bowe, the six-year-old fairly powered away on the run-in to put five and a half lengths between himself and Caledon Craic
Those that helped make Be Seeing You the 11/10 market-leader, would have been concerned for their investment from some way out, and Gordon Elliott's runner eventually filled the fourth spot under Paul Carberry.
Elizabeth Duffy said: "We were very hopeful. He won a point-to-point a couple of weeks ago and he is with Colin Bowe for a few months now."
For his part her father Matthew revealed: "We have just him in training at the moment and we were the joint breeders of Rockaway Valley who won at the Curragh on Sunday. We bred him in partnership with Newtown Stud."
