No thoughts of retirement for Carberry

PAUL CARBERRY has quashed any rumours of retirement despite the fact that he will miss all the spring festivals. 

Noel Meade’s number one rider turned 42 on Tuesday and his hopes of returning for the Cheltenham Festival were dashed last month when he cracked one of the screws that went into his femur when suffering his initial leg break at Listowel last September.

A return to action looks a long way down the line but Carberry is unwilling to contemplate retirement. 

‘It’s so frustrating’

“I have to see my specialist Paddy Kenny at the end of the month and I will know a lot more then,” said Carberry.

“He’ll give me the bad news or, hopefully, some good news. It looks like I’ll be missing all the big festivals anyway. It is so frustrating as I was just getting back on my feet. 

“At the moment I am not really doing much and it is just a case of being patient. That is all I can do. I won’t be retiring, though. That is out of the question for now anyway. I want to get back,” he added.  

Gold Cup the Road for Riches

Carberry has 14 Cheltenham Festival winners to his name and warned punters not to give up on Road To Riches whom he believes should definitely go for the Timico Gold Cup rather than the Ryanair. 

“I would still go to the Cheltenham Gold Cup with him,” said Carberry.

“He just did not get into any sort of rhythm in the Irish Gold Cup and that is not him. He is usually a brilliant jumper but he just did not seem to come out of that ground.

“He ran so well in the Gold Cup last year that it is only fair that he should have another go at it, especially if the ground was a bit better this year.”
