Knockanarrigan can complete hat-trick

Dessie Hughes’ Knockanarrigan can complete a hat-trick in the 18-runner Castlerea Handicap Hurdle at Roscommon tonight.

His last two wins have come over fences, the six-year-old shaping as if he is a much- improved horse.

At Fairyhouse in May, he only won by a short head, but was nicely in command when slipping badly at the back of the final fence.
