Easter Monday was a poor day for my picks, at Cork Nelly's Money fell 2 out while in the lead and at Fairyhouse Blackbow fell at the 4th sadly suffering a fatal injury. The only horse to finish was Gaillard Du Mesnil who was 3rd in the Irish Grand National, the 11/2 favourite was 4th at halfway improving to 3rd entering the straight. He was short of room before 2 out making no impression at the last. Lord Lariat won the race the 40/1 shot beat Frontal Assault by 4 3/4 lengths.
After a busy Easter at Cork and Fairyhouse Irish racing has a day off. Meetings do take place at Sedgefield, Epsom, Yarmouth, Worcester and Wolverhampton so there is plenty to keep you entertained. The next Irish card comes at Bellewstown on Wednesday, my tips for that will be up on Tuesday night.
