The big race of the weekend saw Honeysuckle make it 13 wins in a row. The 2/5 favourite made a slight mistake at the 2nd but recovered to be 3rd at the next. She closed down the leader 4 out and led asserting herself from 2 out,she travelled well easily coming home by 8 lengths. The impressive performance saw her odds immediately cut to 4/5 on to retain her Champion Hurdle crown at Cheltenham in March.
After a busy weekend at Fairyhouse there is no Irish racing until Wednesday. On Monday there are meetings at Kempton, Ayr and an evening card at Wolverhampton. While on Tuesday Lingfield, Southwell and Newcastle provide the action all weather permitting. The next Irish card is the midweek meeting at Dundalk my preview of that will be up on Tuesday night.
