Reliable Bucket completes the hat-trick The Niall Madden trained Shake The Bucket completed a hat-trick of handicap wins at Dundalk tonight, in the Cargotec Ireland Apprentice Handicap, scoring a second career winner for apprentice jockey Megan Carberry. Carberry, a cousin of jockeys Nina, Paul & Philip Carberry, settled the son of Ashkalani in rear before producing her challenge in the straight eventually getting up close home for a narrow win over Shisha Threesixty. Afterwards winning owner Sarah Ann Madden, daughter of the winning trainer, said “we bred both Shake The Bucket, her dam San Diego and her dam Canverb and my youngest brother Tom named Shake The Bucket! “We'll find another handicap here for him now and he'll go back hurdling at some stage too.” Unfortunately there was a sting in the tail for eighteen year old Carberry who relegated Shisha Threesixty, trained by her boss Ger Lyons, to the runner-up spot. Lyons' brother and assistant Shane Lyons later joked “Megan will be painting the stables in the morning!”
