Three from three for Carberrys at Gowran He may have been two pounds out of the handicap but Plaisir D'Estruval was still competing from a mark 25Ibs below his chase rating in the Evening Racing At Gowran Park Handicap Hurdle and that wasn't lost on punters who made him the 3/1 favourite (from 4s). The bottom-weight chased after Farringdon (at the opposite end of the weights) from before the last and as soon Plaisir D'Estruval got there on the run-in, Peter John Carberry could afford to sit up as he prevailed by a length and a quarter. Winning trainer, Arthur Moore, an uncle of the twenty-year-old winning rider, said: "He was in the Byrne Plate at Cheltenham but he didn't quite make the cut. He was probably better off here anyway. That was Peter John's first winner for me. He is going to Charles O'Brien's on Monday to be an apprentice on the flat. That was a good send-off and he'll mix it. "He'll be entered in the Topham at Aintree. Two miles six around there might suit him if he got in and the big fences. He might just go to Punchestown though." This was young Carberry's second winner as a pro and he was following on from brother Paul's winners in the first two races, Jim Bowie and Lady Roberta.
