GARY Carroll was the jockey to follow in Co Meath as he rode a treble, with two of the winners supplied by long-standing ally Ger Lyons. Gavin Cromwell got the ball rolling for Carroll through 5/4 favourite Barrow Boy in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden over an extended five furlongs. This Bayside Boy colt stepped up on a promising second over course and distance last month.

Carroll had him prominent from stall three and he improved into second on the approach to the final furlong.
