At Cork on Saturday Thunder Kiss won,the 2/1 favourite sat 4th at halfway travelling well to sit 3rd 3 out. She led soon after and was 3 lengths clear entering the final furlong. She kept on well beating Annerville by 4 1/2 lengths. Over at Fairyhouse Iberique Du Seuil was a non-runner. The race was won by Glan who beat La Prima Donna by 1/2 a length.
We continue the Easter weekend with a second day at both Cork and Fairyhouse where there are two feature contests.
Cork 3.30: baroneracing.com Chase (Grade 3).
1: Melon: A high-class chaser who last won at Gowran Park in February. He was a below par 5th behind Allaho in the Ryanair Chase at Cheltenham 31 days ago. However he is a big player here back in an easier race.
Fairyhouse 4.55: Boylesports Gold Cup Novice Chase (Grade 1).
4: Galopin Des Champs: One of the best chasers around who after winning twice at Leopardstown was well on course to make it 5 wins in a row when falling at the last in the Turners Novices Chase at Cheltenham. He should get back to winning ways here with a clear run as compensation awaits.
