Carndale can collect

ROSCOMMON tonight, subject to wholesale balloting yesterday morning, has a grim appearance and there is little cause for optimism.

Noel Meade's Carndale is a hopeful nap choice in the J F Hanley Groundscare Handicap Chase. The eight-year-old was decidedly unlucky last time and should at least go close.

At Navan last month, Carndale was travelling strongly heading to the home turn, but was hampered when a horse fell in front off him turning in.
