Riviera Sun might be capable of giving Barry Geraghty his first win as retained rider for J P McManus in the Roscommon Rated Novice Hurdle tonight.

Bryan Cooper followed-up Monday’s win on The Game Changer with a superb treble in sunny Roscommon last night, providing Gigginstown House Stud with a double on Gangster and Cape Glory before following-up on Phangio for Colin Bowe.
